Piles up 11 tackles in defeat Baker recorded 11 tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a pass breakup in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks.

Impact While Baker racked up a load of tackles, he was burned in coverage on Jaxon Smith-Njigba's 82-yard touchdown on a double-move in the first quarter. JSN made the entire Arizona secondary look foolish en route to 9-155-3 receiving line across 11 targets. Through two games this season, Baker has 16 tackles (11 solo), including 1.5 sacks, on 100 percent of the defensive snaps.

Gets to Herbert late in Week 1 win Baker recorded five tackles (four solo), including 0.5 sacks, during the Cardinals' 26-14 win over the Chargers on Sunday.

Impact Baker and linebacker Jack Gibbens combined for an eight-yard sack on Justin Herbert late in the fourth quarter, setting back any dim hopes the Chargers had of making a late comeback. The combined sack matched Baker's total from last season, and he was one of three Cardinals to play all 55 defensive snaps in Sunday's win. The veteran safety has six 100-plus tackle campaigns under his belt, but he'll need more production in the box score in order to make it seven seasons reaching that milestone.
