4. player. 60. . . . Danielle Hunter

Danielle Hunter is one of the best pass rushers in the NFL but he has struggled to stay on the field the past few years. He was a third round pick by the Minnesota Vikings in 2015 and after six sacks as a rookie, he would have double-digit sacks in three of the next four seasons and 71 total QB hits.

However, a neck injury forced him to miss the entire 2020 season but would return last year and had six sacks in the first seven games. Unfortunately, a pec injury forced him to miss the remainder of the year and cut his season short.

At only 28 years of age, Hunter has plenty of good football left and this year he could return to the level he did in 2018 and 2019. The Vikings added Za’Darius Smith and that should help free up some better matchups with a talented pass rusher on the other side.

This is a game where the Buffalo Bills’ tackles are going to be challenged but the Buffalo Bills coaching staff will need to prioritize slowing down Hunter in their Week 10 matchup.
