ANALYSIS
Battle's strong season continued Sunday despite the loss, as he's now recorded at least six tackles in five of his first six outings. The 2023 third-round pick has racked up 45 tackles (19 solo) on the campaign and will look to add to those numbers in the team's Week 7 matchup versus the Steelers.

Cincy's leading tackler in loss
Battle recorded seven tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 48-10 loss at Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
After Sunday's performance, Battle leads the Bengals in tackles (23) through three games in 2025. He has been a bright spot on a defense that has looked mediocre to start the season, and he is worthy of IDP consideration going into a Week 4 tilt at Denver.
Sep 8, 2025
Huge game in win
Battle recorded 12 total tackles (five solo) and one interception during Sunday's 17-16 win over the Browns.
ANALYSIS
The 2023 third-round pick from Alabama was all over the field during Cincinnati's regular-season debut, leading the team in total tackles while also picking off Joe Flacco in the third quarter. Battle had a disappointing sophomore campaign in 2024 but appears poised for a third-year breakout, playing 100-percent of the Bengals' defensive snaps in Week 1. He's expected to start alongside Geno Stone as part of Cincinnati's top safety duo in Week 2 against the Vikings.

Output declines in 2024
Battle recorded 58 total tackles and three passes defended, including one interception, across 17 games in 2024.
ANALYSIS
The Alabama product experienced a dip in production during his second season in the NFL, recording fewer tackles (71 to 58), passes defended (five to three) and defensive snaps played (507 to 442) compared to his rookie year. However, Battle came on late in the season and helped the Bengals' defensive resurgence, tallying 33 total tackles and one interception while starting over Vonn Bell in the team's final six games. With Bell set to hit unrestricted free agency this offseason, Battle will aim to build on his strong finish to 2024 and is likely to start alongside Geno Stone in the Bengals' secondary in 2025.
Dec 23, 2024
Picks off DTR in Week 16
Battle recorded seven total tackles (six solo) and one interception in Sunday's 24-6 win over the Browns.
ANALYSIS
Battle rebounded from a head-scratching fumble through the back of the end zone in Week 15 with his impressive performance in Week 16. The second-year safety from Alabama led Cincinnati's defense in total tackles and picked off Dorian Thompson-Robinson in the fourth quarter of Sunday's blowout win. The Bengals' top safety duo of Battle and Geno Stone both nabbed interceptions in Week 16 and will look to stay hot in the Week 17 matchup against the Broncos.
Dec 17, 2024
Bungles near-touchdown play Sunday
Battle recorded 10 tackles (five solo) and a fumble recovery during Sunday's 37-27 win at Tennessee.
ANALYSIS
Late in the third quarter, Battle scooped up a Tony Pollard fumble in the backfield at Cincinnati's 39-yard line. 60 yards later, there was nothing between Battle and the first touchdown of his career, but he inexplicably lost his handle on the ball just before crossing the goal line and lost a fumble of his own to give possession back to the Titans. He'll be hoping to stay off the blooper reel in Week 16 versus the Browns.
Dec 10, 2024

Impressive rookie campaign

Upon earning the starting role Battle never looked back, averaging 7.4 tackles per contest down the stretch while operating as one of the more reliable playmakers among the Bengals' defense. He could prove a valuable contributor in IDP formats as soon as the 2024 season.

Notches first career sack on TNF
Battle totaled seven tackles (four solo), including one sack, and one pass breakup against Jacksonville in Thursday's 34-31 overtime victory.
ANALYSIS
Battle has stepped into a starting role in each of the past three weeks and has at least seven stops in each of those contests. Against the Jaguars on Thursday, he notched his first sack as a pro late in the fourth quarter, bringing down C.J. Beathard on third-and-2 to help limit Jacksonville to a game-tying field goal. Battle's emergence as a near-every-down starter has put him on the radar in IDP fantasy leagues.

ANALYSIS
Battle led the Bengals with a season-high 12 stops in the Thursday night loss. Perhaps more significantly, he played on 86 percent of Cincinnati's defensive snaps, seeing by far his most action of the campaign. Meanwhile, Nick Scott played on just 17 percent of the team's defensive snaps, suggesting that Battle has surpassed him on the depth chart.

Possible Bates replacement in Cincy
The Bengals selected Battle in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 95th overall.

He didn't test as a standout athlete, but Battle also had multiple long interception returns for touchdown while in college.
