Double-digit tackles on MNF
Anzalone had 10 tackles (eight solo) during Monday's 35-17 loss to the Packers.
Impact
Anzalone has handled 100 percent of defensive snaps through the first two games of the 2021 season, giving him a relatively safe fantasy floor in IDP formats. However, as the year progresses, there will be some risk of rookie fourth-round pick Derrick Barnes pushing for a share of interior snaps.

Locked into starting role
Anzalone is locked into a starting role at inside linebacker, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.
Impact
Signed to a team-friendly deal in free agency, Anzalone perhaps unsurprisingly seems to have beaten out Jahlani Tavai for the starting job next to Jamie Collins. If he can stay there all year, the 26-year-old has a great shot of topping the career-high 59 tackles he logged over 486 defensive snaps for New Orleans in 2018.

Lions sign LB Alex Anzalone and WR Damion Ratley

Signs with Lions
Anzalone agreed Wednesday with the Lions on a one-year, $1.75 million contract, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Impact
Anzalone, formerly a rotational linebacker with the Saints, will reunite with former New Orleans assist and new Detroit head coach Dan Campbell. Despite handling the heaviest snap count of his career last season (525) and playing in all 16 games, Anzalone only managed 22 total tackles and was held without a sack.

Disappointing season
Anzalone recorded 41 tackles (22 solo) across 16 regular-season games for the Saints in 2020.
Impact
It was encouraging to see him play all 16 games after playing in just two last year, and despite playing heavy snaps, he disappointed. Anzalone failed to force a turnover or record a sack and compiled fewer than three tackles per game -- a career-low mark. He's set to become an unrestricted free agent in 2021, and his future with the Saints is yet unknown.

Locked in with first unit
Anzalone has been "entrenched with the [first team],' Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.
Impact
Triplett further added that rookie Zack Baun and new addition Nigel Bradham will compete for the No. 2 linebacker role, but "Anzalone's the one to beat so far." It's encouraging news for the fourth-year linebacker, who was placed on the injured reserve last September due to a shoulder injury and has only played a full season once in his career.
