Steelers linebacker Lawrence Timmons was named the AFC defensive player of the week for his performance in the Steelers' 28-10 victory over the Cleveland Browns last Sunday.
Timmons, a second-year starter at inside linebacker, recorded 11 tackles (nine solo), two sacks and an interception in the win against Cleveland.
Despite playing in just five games due the Steelers' Week 5 bye, Timmons is tied for fourth in the NFL in total tackles. He has three sacks, an interception and a forced fumble on the season.
