Dean was placed on IR after suffering a foot injury in his first career start vs. New England. He was later seen leaving the locker room in a walking boot but wasn’t required to have surgery.

Zach Cunningham and Nicholas Millow have filled in at linebacker in Dean’s absence.

Nicholas Morrow finished the game with a career-high-tying 11 tackles (10 solo), a career-high 3.0 sacks, 3 TFLs, 3 QB hits and 1 FF.
