After a four tackle and one sack performance in Baltimore’s 26-10 victory over the Dolphins, Haloti Ngata received the AFC Defensive Player of the Week honor.

According to a quote from NationalFootballPost.com, Dolphins head coach Tony Sparano gave credit to Ngata after the week 9 match up.

“You got to know where he is all the time and that’s a little bit of a problem because at times he lines up in a couple of different spots. I think that he’s playing outstanding as far as I’m concerned.”
