A "sack" is not a TFL if it is for zero yards.

According to PFR, Trey Hendrickson had 1.0 sacks against the Raiders in Week 11 but 0 TFL. The sack he got was near the end of the 4th quarter for -5 yards.

Maybe a sack can only be a TFL if the QB has turned into a runner? So if they're just standing there in the pocket, not trying to escape with their legs it's just a sack and not a TFL? Because Hendrickson had 2.0 sacks against the Packers and 2 TFL, and I didn't see any non-sack tackles that went for a loss by Hendrickson.
