The Las Vegas Raiders managed to pull out a win in a defensive struggle against the New York Jets on Sunday Night Football as the Raiders managed to keep the Jets from scoring a touchdown and to just 12 points. Linebacker Robert Spillane was a big reason why as he put together an elite performance.

Spillane tied for the team lead with seven total tackles and sits as Pro Football Focus’ highest-graded linebacker (90.8) for the week, ahead of Monday Night Football. Most notably, Spillane recorded three defensive stops, zero missed tackles, a sack and a late interception to help put the game on ice.
