Sanborn posted two tackles and a sack in the Bears' 19-13 loss to the Texans on Sunday. With the Bears often playing with two linebackers on the field, Sanborn is often the odd-man out. In this game, he played just 18 percent of the snaps, and Sanborn now has just two tackles on the season. The lack of playing time makes him difficult to count on in IDP leagues.

Sanborn posted two tackles and a sack in the Bears' 19-13 loss to the Texans on Sunday. With the Bears often playing with two linebackers on the field, Sanborn is often the odd-man out. In this game, he played just 18 percent of the snaps, and Sanborn now has just two tackles on the season. The lack of playing time makes him difficult to count on in IDP leagues.
Sanborn is listed at the starting outside linebacker ahead of Noah Sewell. After last year's Week 13 bye, Sanborn played fewer than 20 percent of the snaps in each contest. Prior to that time, the linebacker had a number of games in which he played elevated snaps when Chicago dealt with linebacker injuries. Since 2022, when Sanborn has been called upon to start, he has compiled high tackle totals, making him an excellent IDP in those cases. If the veteran can hold off Sewell for the starting role, Sanborn could be a sneaky IDP option.
