#StanfordNFL: Week 15
Henry Anderson • DE • Indianapolis Colts • Second season • @HenryAnderson91
Anderson played 47 percent of defensive snaps in Indianapolis' 34-6 win at Minnesota. He recovered a fumble in the third quarter and was credited with a quarterback pressure on Zach Kerr's interception on the Vikings' next series.
The Colts defense just picked up its third turnover. Robert Mathis with a strip sack and Henry Anderson with recovery. Complete effort 2day

Johnson Bademosi • CB/ST • Detroit Lions • Fifth season • @J_Bademosi24
Bademosi appeared on 66 percent of defensive snaps and 15 special teams snaps in Detroit's 17-6 loss at the New York Giants. He defended one pass in the absence of Darius Slay, who left the game with a hamstring injury. Bademosi will likely continue to see snaps on defense if Slay remains sidelined.
Johnson Bademosi, in for Darius Slay, had that 3rd down pass breakup. #DETvsNYG
