Leads team in tackles
Bentley recorded 114 tackles, including 4.5 sacks, in 16 games with the Patriots during the 2023 regular season.
ANALYSIS
Occupying a starting linebacker slot, Bentley led the Patriots in tackles this past season while marking his third straight 100-plus tackle effort for the team. Bentley remains under contract with New England through the 2025 campaign and is thus slated to reprise his key role in the defense next season, a context that should continue to result in enough production from the 2018 fifth-rounder to merit fantasy attention in IDP formats.

This coming season, the 2018 fifth-rounder is set to reprise his starting inside linebacker role for the Patriots, and in the process, the 6-2, 244-pounder should continue to yield enough production to merit attention in deeper IDP formats.
