Picks off four passes this season Thompson notched 78 tackles, including 1.0 sack, four interceptions among nine pass defenses and a forced fumble in 15 regular-season contests in 2023.

Impact After surpassing 100 tackles in both of the previous two campaigns, Thompson fell well short of that mark while missing his first games (Weeks 6 and 7) since December 2020.
