Bentley recorded nine tackles in Sunday's 25-20 loss versus Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
Bentley led New England in tackles in a game where they held the Eagles to under 100 rush yards, an impressive feat. He's well on his way to his third consecutive 100-tackle season, but draws a pass-heavy offense in Week 2 versus Miami.

Bentley signed a two-year extension with the Patriots on Thursday worth $18.75 million with $9 million guaranteed, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bentley was entering the final year of a two-year deal signed last March. The 26-year-old led New England with 125 tackles (62 solo) last season and should remain an integral part of the team's defense beyond just the 2023 campaign.

Bentley played in 17 games and compiled 125 tackles (62 solo), three sacks, an interception and a fumble recovery during the 2022 season.
EDGE Analysis
Bentley had the best season of his career, setting new highs in tackles and sacks while also recording his first interception since 2018. The 26-year-old led the Patriots in both solo and total tackles while finishing fourth in sacks. With one more year remaining on his contract, the 2018 fifth-round pick should be locked in as one of New England's starting inside linebackers for next season.

Bentley recorded nine stops (five solo), including a tackle for loss, during Sunday's 23-21 win versus the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Bentley came short of 10 tackles for the first time in four weeks. However, he continued to pace the Patriots in tackles Week 18, and he has now logged a team-high 118 tackles over 16 games this season. This also marks a new career high for tackles in the linebacker's five-year tenure with New England.
