EDGE Analysis
Baker had a relatively quiet game, finishing tied for fourth on Arizona in stops. That was his lowest mark since he logged five tackles against Seattle in Week 10. Still, Baker has been an elite IDP option this season, registering 93 tackles (including 0.5 sacks) and four defensed passes (including one interception) through 13 games.

EDGE Analysis
With another nice day in the box score in Week 13, Baker has now tallied at least seven tackles in five of his last six games. He's easily on pace for the sixth 100-plus tackle season of his career and projects as a good IDP play in most formats in a Week 14 matchup versus the Rams.

Baker tallied nine tackles (four solo), including 0.5 sacks, along with an interception Sunday in an overtime loss to Jacksonville.
EDGE Analysis
Baker got into the sack column for the first time this season with an assisted sack of Trevor Lawrence early in the second quarter. That was one of his nine stops in the contest, which tied for the team lead. Baker's biggest play, however, was a pickoff of Lawrence midway through the fourth quarter that set up a go-ahead touchdown by Arizona three plays later. The interception was Baker's first sine the 2022 season.
