Elite: tackles (97th percentile). Strength: solo tackles (97th percentile).

What the box score actually says
74 tackles. 2 passes defended. 2 interceptions. 7 TFL.
Counts only, never a rate — splash-event sample sizes this small (interceptions, pass breakups, TFL) are noise as a rate and signal only as a tally.
