  • Won't play Sunday

    Spillane (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Analysis: Spillane sustained an ankle injury in the Week 14 win over the Giants and is now in line to miss his fourth consecutive contest. The veteran linebacker is a crucial part of the Patriots' defense, tallying 97 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, five passes defensed, with two interceptions, and one forced fumble over 13 appearances this season. While he's sidelined Sunday, expect Jack Gibbens to have an expanded role in New England's linebacker corps.

  • DNP to open Week 18 prep

    Spillane (ankle) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Spillane has been inactive for each of the Patriots' last two games due to an ankle injury, though he's technically not played in three consecutive games after playing zero snaps while being active during the Patriots' Week 15 loss to the Bills. He also hasn't been able to practice since sustaining the injury in Week 14 against the Giants, so he's unlikely to play in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Dolphins unless he were to log at least a limited session over the next two days.

    Spillane closed out his 2023 campaign with a career-high 148 tackles (82 solo), including 3.5 sacks, three interceptions among four passes defensed and a forced fumble in 17 games.

    Analysis: Ultimately ranking 10th among the NFL in total tackles in 2023, Spillane was a defensive force in his first season with the Raiders after spending the previous four years as a part-time player in Pittsburgh.

  • Good to go

    Spillane (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Spillane was a limited participant in all three practices leading up to Week 12. He's played every single defensive snap in each of the last four games and is coming off a team-high 13 tackles in last week's loss to the Dolphins.

  • Could sit Sunday due to ankle issue

    Spillane (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's Week 12 contest versus the Chiefs, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.

    Analysis: Spillane played every defensive snap and tallied a team-high 13 tackles in a loss to Miami last Sunday, but he's been hobbled by an ankle injury during Week 12 prep. The linebacker logged a trio of limited practice sessions and enters the weekend with a questionable tag ahead of Sunday's clash with Kansas City. Spillane has rarely missed a defensive down for Las Vegas this season and leads the team with 94 stops and three interceptions, so an absence against the Chiefs would be sharply felt.

  • Leads team in tackles

    Spillane recorded 13 tackles (six solo) and a pass deflection during Sunday's 20-13 loss to Miami.

    Analysis: Spillane had one of most productive games of the season, as he led the team in tackles. The 27-year-old registered double-digit tackles for the first time since Week 2 versus the Bills and has now compiled 94 tackles (49 solo) through 11 games.

  • Huge interception in close matchup

    Spillane recorded seven tackles, one sack and one interception in Sunday's 16-12 win over the Jets.

    Analysis: Spillane continued to lead the defense Sunday, tying for the most tackles and recording a sack late in the second quarter. The linebacker's most notable play was late in the fourth quarter when he intercepted Jets quarterback Zach Wilson after the offense marched down to the Raiders' 20-yard-line. The 27-year-old almost doubles the next linebacker Divine Deablo in team snap count and has proven himself as a legitimate IDP asset with 81 tackles and three interceptions this year.

  • Will play Sunday

    Spillane (hand) is active Sunday against the Giants.

    Analysis: Spillane didn't miss a defensive snap in Monday's loss to the Lions, so it's not clear when he suffered the injury. However, it's a moot point, as the Western Michigan product feels well enough to take the field in Week 9 and should start at middle linebacker.

  • Questionable due to hand injury

    Spillane is considered questionable for Sunday's Week 9 clash with the Giants due to a hand injury, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Analysis: Spillane played 100 percent of the Raiders' defensive snaps this past Monday against Detroit, but he apparently picked up a hand injury as he began Week 9 prep with a DNP. He's since been able to log a pair of limited practices, so he has a chance to suit up this Sunday. Las Vegas will be without Divine Deablo (ankle) and Luke Masterson (concussion) for that contest, so they'll be perilously thin at linebacker if Spillane is forced to sit out as well. In that scenario, Jaylon Smith -- who…read more

    Spillane recorded eight tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 30-12 loss at Chicago.

    Analysis: Spillane tallied seven-plus tackles for the sixth time in seven games this season in Week 7, easily maintaining pace for a career year in that category. He has also led Las Vegas' linebackers in snaps in every game in 2023, and he should continue to do so in Week 8 at Detroit.

    Spillane recorded seven tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 21-17 win over New England.

    Analysis: Spillane continues to succeed in his first year as a full-time starter, as he's recorded under seven tackles in a game just once thus far. The Western Michigan product leads Las Vegas in tackles and is tied for the lead in interceptions through the first six games of the season. He's easily having the most productive year of his career, logging 49 tackles, two interceptions and one sack. Expect Spillane to continue making plays for the Raiders' defense as the year goes on.

    Analysis: Spillane's two picks were his first two of the season, and his tackle count was his second highest through five games. It is worth noting he did not miss a snap for the fourth time this year. He is now set to shift his attention to Sunday's matchup with the Patriots.

    Spillane recorded seven tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 23-18 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: Spillane is up to 28 tackles total through three games. Perhaps even more impressive, he has been on the field for all 202 defensive snaps this season.

  • Huge game in Week 2

    Spillane recorded 14 tackles, including a sack, in Sunday's 38-10 loss at Buffalo.

    Analysis: In a game where the Bills ran the ball more often than usual, Spillane was busy, and he racked up the tackle numbers to show it. He's easily on pace for the first 100-tackle season of his career, and he should continue to be a solid IDP option as long as he's healthy, especially if Las Vegas continues to find itself in negative game script situations.

  • Set to move to Las Vegas

    Spillane is expected to sign a two-year deal with the Raiders that's worth a maximum of $9 million with more than $4 million in guarantees, Doug Kyed of AtoZSports reports.

    Analysis: Spillane played a career-high 565 defensive snaps last year for the Steelers, resulting in him posting 79 tackles at inside linebacker. He'll move from a 3-4 defense in Pittsburgh to a 4-3 scheme in Las Vegas, meaning Spillane will likely be cast as a middle linebacker with his new team -- a move that could result in a bump in his IDP value.

    Analysis: Spillane has earned over 300 defensive snaps in each of the last two seasons with the Steelers, and he managed a career-best 56 tackles in 2021. He'll currently earn around $2.4 million in 2022, though he could sign for more elsewhere with the Steelers then having the option to match the terms. If Spillane remains in Pittsburgh, he could have a significant role in 2022, particularly if the team decides to part ways with Joe Schobert to free additional cap space.

    Analysis: Spillane got the scoring started with a pick-six on Baltimore's opening drive, and he kept his motor running on high for the rest of the game, leading the team in tackles. The Steelers boosted their interior linebacker depth by trading for Avery Williamson later Sunday, but Spillane will continue to play the vast majority of defensive snaps if he keeps performing at this level.

He's been an effective special-teams tackler with 18 stops over his last 13 games, but now he'll have a major role in one of the league's best defenses.
