10. Prince Amukamara

Prince Amukamara is having one of the better years of his career. Still, somehow he sits at number on the list. Amukamara missed one start and has played over 83% of the teams snaps on defense.

Amukamara has two interceptions, two forced fumbles, six passes defended and three tackles for loss. He has shown up against the pass and the run this season. Interestingly enough, teams have targeted Kyle Fuller more than Amukamara.

Amukamara has allowed 27 receptions, three going for touchdowns. He has allowed 9.7 yards per target and an 83.1 passer rating against. Amukamara has given up two or three huge plays. However, aside from that, he has kept receivers in check and has forced them away from his side of the field.

It is worth noting that in the time he has missed, the Bears have allowed 10 yards per pass attempt. They allow 6.9 yards per attempt when he is on the field. That has a bit to do with teams looking to attack Kevin Toliver off of the bench. However, it also speaks to the impact of Amukamara.
