No practice Wednesday
Kazee did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a hip injury, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Kazee has only missed six percent of defensive snaps through two contests, so it's possible that the Falcons are simply allowing him a day of rest. The starting free safety will have to more opportunities to return to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears.

Leads team in tackles
Kazee recorded eight tackles (seven solo) across 77 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: With Ricardo Allen (elbow) sidelined for the contest, Kazee was relied on even more than normal, playing in 94 percent of the team's defensive snaps. His eight tackles led the team, a performance he'll look to duplicate next Sunday against the Bears.

Heading into contract season
Kazee says he is "not worried" about his next contract, Kelsey Conway of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: The 27-year-old has exceeded expectations for Atlanta, starting 29 contests over the past two seasons and missing zero games since entering the NFL as a fifth-round pick in 2017. Kazee demonstrated play-making ability during 2018 when he tied Kyle Fuller and Xavien Howard with a league-best seven interceptions, but during 2019 he became more reliable in coverage. Kazee allowed a passer rating of just 66.3 when targeted last season (compared to an 82.1 rating during his breakout 2018 campaign)…read more

Staying at safety
Coach Dan Quinn said Kazee will stay at safety moving forward, Jason Butt of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Falcons moved Kazee from free safety to slot corner last summer, eventually switching him back in late October. He finished the year with 14 starts in 16 appearances, piling up 74 tackles and three interceptions on 803 defensive snaps. D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution expects Kazee and Keanu Neal (Achilles) to sit atop the depth chart at safety whenever the Falcons are able to practice, while Ricardo Allen (shoulder) projects as the nickelback.

Earns performance-based bonus
Kazee was awarded a $202,885 performance-based distribution Thursday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The 26-year-old defensive back has substantially outperformed his rookie deal, and he will be well positioned for a lucrative new contract at the end of 2020 if he maintains the level of play he's established the past two seasons. Kazee has accumulated 10 interceptions, 13 pass deflections, two forced fumbles and 156 tackles since the start of the 2018 campaign, and during this upcoming season will see his base salary escalate from $645,000 to $2,147,000 before becoming an unrestricted free…read more

Collects three INTS during 2019
Kazee collected 69 total tackles, three pass deflections, three interceptions and a forced fumble across 16 appearances for the Falcons in 2019.
Analysis: Coach Dan Quinn intended to deploy Kazee as the team's primary nickelback this year, but an early-season injury to Keanu Neal (Achilles) forced him to shift Kazee back to his 2018 position of safety. Kazee was an X-factor in 2018 while collecting 10 pass deflections and an NFL-high seven interceptions, but this season, he endured drastic declines in each category while the Falcons improved from 28th to 22nd in pass defense. The 26-year-old remains under contract with Atlanta for one more season…read more

Three forced turnovers spark win
Kazee compiled three tackles, two interceptions and a forced fumble during Sunday's 40-20 win against the Panthers.
Analysis: The 26-year-old defensive back played an undeniably pivotal role during Atlanta's Week 14 victory, as Kazee's three forced turnovers led directly to two separate Falcons scores. With another noteworthy outing Sunday he now has a hand in four takeaways over the Falcons' past four games, heading into a Week 15 matchup against a San Francisco offense that ranks tied for 18th in the league with 19 giveaways thus far in 2019.

Nabs INT Sunday
Kazee racked up three tackles (all solo), a pass defended and an interception in Sunday's win over Carolina.
Analysis: Kazee broke into the interception column for the first time this season. He was on the receiving end of a wayward Kyle Allen pass late in the fourth quarter to effectively end the contest. If the 26-year-old can continue to see 87 percent of defensive snaps on a weekly basis like he did Sunday, Kazee will likely establish himself as a viable IDP option. He'll face a juicy matchup against the Buccaneers for Week 12, as Jameis Winston is coming off a four-interception performance versus the…read more
