News

  • Takes the field

    Bentley (arm) is participating in OTAs, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

    Analysis: Bentley suffered an arm injury in the Patriots' playoff loss to the Bills in January and never returned to action. His participation in OTAs is a good sign that there was no lingering effects for the fourth-year pro. Bentley has been a focal point of the Patriots' linebacker unit the last two seasons, totaling 200 tackles, 2.5 sacks, four passes defensed and three forced fumbles over that time.

  • Back with New England

    Bentley (arm) agreed to a two-year, $9 million contract with the Patriots on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Bentley appeared in 16 games for the Patriots in 2021 and registered a team-high 109 tackles. He suffered an arm injury during New England's wild-card loss to the Bills, but he's expected to be back at full strength for OTAs.

  • Leads team in tackles

    Bentley (arm) finished the 2021 regular season with a team-high 109 tackles and a sack in 16 games.

    Analysis: Per Paul Perillo of the Patriots' official site, Bentley, who is a pending unrestricted free agent, displayed "the ability to stop the run while providing occasional pressure as a blitzer" in his fourth NFL season. Perillo suggests that Bentley isn't likely to break the bank in free agency and is thus a candidate to be re-signed by New England this offseason. Bentley exited the Patriots' wild-card round loss to the Bills with an arm injury, but he should be at full strength for OTAs.

  • Will not return

  • Placed on COVID list

    Bentley has landed on the Patriots' reserve/COVID-19 list, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Bentley apparently tested positive for the virus via Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. As a result, his return will depend on when he clears the league's health and safety protocols.

  • Won't return Saturday

    Bentley (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Saturday's game against the Colts.

    Analysis: Bentley recorded a tackle prior to exiting Saturday's matchup. Jamie Collins and Jahlani Tavai should see increased roles in Bentley's absence.

  • Questionable to return

    Bentley is questionable to return to Saturday's game against the Colts with an ankle injury.

    Analysis: Bentley's loss leaves the Patriots without their leading tackler. Jamie Collins and Jahlani Tavai should pick up the slack in the meantime.

  • Tallies eight tackles in win

    Bentley recorded eight total tackles (three solo) in the 14-10 win over Buffalo on Monday night.

    Analysis: Coming off a huge Week 12 performance in which Bentley recorded a sack and forced two fumbles, the 25-year-old put up another solid game as he totaled the second most tackles on the New England defense. The linebacker has now tallied seven-plus tackles in each of his last four games and leads the Patriots with 80 total tackles on the season.

  • Good to go

    Bentley (ribs) is active for Monday's matchup with the Bills,

    Analysis: Bentley drew a questionable designation after practicing in limited fashion all week. Barring any setbacks, look for him to take on his usual workload in Buffalo.

  • Questionable for Week 13

    Bentley (ribs) is questionable for Monday's game against Buffalo, Phil Perry of NBC Sports Boston reports.

    Analysis: Bentley landed on the injury report to begin the week and has logged three limited practices since. He's played over half of the team's defensive snaps in nine of his 11 games and racked up 73 total tackles and forced two fumbles. His potential absence would leave a void in the middle of New England's defense in a key matchup against the Bills.

  • Dealing with ribs injury

    Bentley (ribs) was limited in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Bentley is coming off a 10-tackle performance during Week 12's win over the Titans, but his status will need to be monitored ahead of Monday's road matchup in Buffalo. The linebacker will have two more chances to practice in full and shed his injury designation.

  • Will play against Jets

    Bentley (ribs) is active for Sunday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: Bentley was limited in practice throughout the week, but he is active for this contest, which boosts the team's depth at the linebacker position -- especially with Dont'a Hightower (elbow) inactive.

    Published: Sun, Oct 24 at 8:50am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Questionable for Week 7

    Bentley (ribs) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Jets.

    Analysis: Bentley was a limited participant throughout practice this week and will likely be a game-time decision Sunday. Dont'a Hightower (elbow) is also listed as questionable for Week 7, so if neither middle linebacker is able to play, Jahlani Tavai may be in line for his first extended work of the season.

  • Leaves early Sunday

    Bentley is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Dallas with a ribs injury.

    Analysis: Bentley made one of the plays of the game before departing, causing a Dak Prescott fumble at the goal line in the first half. Dont'a Hightower had checked out with an elbow injury for a bit but returned to middle linebacker once Bentley had to leave.

  • Active for Week 5

    Bentley (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Analysis: Bentley makes his return to the active roster after not playing against the Buccaneers last week. He has racked up 20 tackles (17 solo) while adding two passes defended through three games so far.

    Published: Sun, Oct 10 at 9:21am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Won't play Sunday

    Bentley (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Bentley picked up the injury in Week 3 against the Saints and was unable to practice all week, so this was a foregone conclusion. Brandon King and Josh Uche could see extra snaps at linebacker as a result.

    Published: Sun, Oct 3 at 4:36pm by Rotowire.com

  • Suffers injury Sunday

    Bentley suffered an undisclosed injury during the Week 3 loss to the Saints and didn't return to the game, Mark Daniels of the Providence Journal reports.

    Analysis: Bentley recorded six tackles before picking up an injury in the first half of Week 3. Jahlani Tavai replaced the 25-year-old linebacker to start the second half, but he only played eight snaps behind Dont'a Hightower. The extent of Bentley's injury is unknown.

  • Impressive in win

    Bentley posted nine tackles (seven solo) and a pass breakup in Sunday's 25-6 win over the Jets.

    Analysis: Kyle Van Noy (neck) sat out Sunday's game, so Bentley started and led the team in tackles. As long as Van Noy is out of the lineup, Bentley should have significant IDP upside, but he'll be tough to rely on otherwise.

  • Records 90 tackles

    Bentley finished the 2020 season with 90 tackles and 1.5 sacks in 13 games.

    Analysis: In his third NFL season, the 2018 fifth-rounder saw regular action at inside linebacker, when healthy. Bentley's 2021 fantasy upside hinges largely on what moves the Patriots make to shore up their linebacker corps, as well as whether veteran Dont'a Hightower -- who opted out this past season -- returns to the mix.

  • All clear for Week 17 finale

    Bentley (shoulder) is active heading into Sunday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: Bentley's shoulder injury forced him to miss his third game of the year Monday night against the Bills, but he's powered through the issue in time for New England's season finale. The 24-year-old enters Sunday's divisional tilt having already established career highs in tackles (83), QB hits (three), sacks (1.5) and pass deflections (two).

  • Considered questionable

    Bentley (shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: Bentley's shoulder injury held him out of last week's loss to the Bills. He was subsequently limited at practice all week and looking like a true game-time decision. Anfernee Jennings would presumably draw another start at inside linebacker should Bentley ultimately have to sit out.

  • Unavailable Monday

    Bentley (shoulder) is inactive for Monday's game versus Buffalo.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old picked up the injury during last week's matchup with Miami and will miss at least one game as a result. Anfernee Jennings could start at inside linebacker for New England in Bentley's absence.

  • Deemed questionable for MNF

    Bentley (shoulder) is questionable for Monday's game versus the Bills, Doug Kyed of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Bentley was a limited participant in practice all week after suffering a shoulder injury in last Sunday's loss to the Dolphins. The 24-year-old has 83 tackles through 12 games. Anfernee Jennings (shoulder) is the next man up at inside linebacker. He's also considered questionable, so the team may need to call up a linebacker from the practice squad.

  • Exits Week 15

    Bentley (arm) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Miami.

    Analysis: It's unclear how Bentley suffered the injury, but he was forced to exit the contest in the second quarter. The Purdue product has had an outstanding season, racking up 79 tackles (45 solo), 1.5 sacks and two pass breakups through 11 games. As long as Bentley is sidelined, Anfernee Jennings is expected to see an increased snap count.

  • Ready for TNF

    Bentley (groin) is officially active for Thursday's game against the Rams.

    Analysis: Bentley popped up on the injury report this week after dealing with the lingering groin issue, but he wasn't in danger of missing the contest. Despite seeing just 35 percent of defensive snaps in last week's win over the Chargers, Bentley is expected to handle a starting role at inside linebacker for the game.

  • Pops up on injury report

    Bentley (groin) was a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate.

    Analysis: Bentley missed a pair of games earlier this season due to a groin injury, and it may be lingering, as he logged a season-low 35 percent snap share in Sunday's 45-0 win over the Chargers. With a short week, his status is uncertain for Thursday's game against the Rams. Anfernee Jennings likely will step in if Bentley can't go.

  • Team's top tackler by wide margin

    Bentley registered 13 total tackles during Sunday's 20-17 win against the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Not only did Bentley have six more tackles than the Patriots' second-leading player, Terez Hall, but he also saved some of his stops for key moments in Sunday's contest. The 24-year-old helped turn away Kenyan Drake at New England's one-yard line on a 4th-and-goal while the clock expired in the second quarter. Later, he combined with Hall to stop Drake again on a 3rd-and-2 on Arizona's final drive of the game, forcing a 45-yard Zane Gonzalez attempt that would be no good. With nine starts to…read more

  • Ready for Week 11

    Bentley (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old was sidelined the past two games by the groin injury, but he'll be back on the field for Week 11. Besides the game in which he suffered the injury, Bentley has played at least 80 percent of defensive snaps when available for the Patriots this season.

  • Won't face Ravens

    Bentley (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Bentley was initially listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup after practicing in a limited fashion all week, but he'll ultimately need more time before retaking the field. Terez Hall and Cassh Maluia could see an uptick in defensive snaps with Bentley out.

  • Considered questionable for SNF

    Bentley (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Ravens.

    Analysis: Bentley was able to practice in a limited fashion all week, so he has a good chance to return to action after missing last week's close win over the Jets. The third-year linebacker out of Purdue has made seven starts this season and racked up 45 tackles, 1.5 sacks and two pass breakups in the process.

  • Won't play Monday

    Bentley (groin) has been downgraded to out for Monday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old was originally considered questionable for Monday's contest after practicing as a limited participant, but he's now been ruled out. Cassh Maluia is expected to start at inside linebacker in Bentley's place.

  • Hampered by groin injury

    Bentley (groin) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Bentley exited last week's game against the Bills with a groin injury, and he's been limited through the first two practices this week. He has one more practice Saturday to upgrade to full participation, otherwise, he'll carry an injury tag into Monday's divisional tilt against the Jets. Cassh Maluia is expected to start at inside linebacker if Bentley can't go.

  • Managing groin issue

    Bentley exited Sunday's loss to the Bills due to a groin injury.

    Analysis: Bentley totaled five tackles and a sack before exiting during the second half. The 24-year-old was considered questionable to return, and the game ended about 10 minutes after the injury was announced.

  • Records career high in stops

    Bentley posted 12 tackles and a half-sack in Sunday's 18-12 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: Bently was named the Patriots' starting inside linebacker during training camp, and he got off to a modest start to 2020, recording at least four tackles but no more than six stops in each of the first four games. The third-year pro exploded Sunday, though, leading the team in tackles and reaching a new career high in the process. He had plenty of opportunities since the Broncos' running backs carried 32 times, so this performance could be tough to replicate in a different game script.

  • Path to playing time opens up

    Bentley is in line to see more action in the Patriots defense during the upcoming season, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: With Jamie Collins, Kyle Van Noy and Elandon Roberts having left via free agency and Donta Hightower having opted out of this season, Bentley looks primed for more reps at inside linebacker in 2020. Most notably, he'll be tasked with replacing Hightower as the Patriots' defensive play-caller. Bentley, who turns 24 later this month, logged 44 tackles in his second season with New England in 2019, but he's bound to see a spike in production in his expanded role and could emerge as a reliable IDP…read more

  • All clear Sunday

    Bentley (knee) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Bentley logged just limited practice throughout the week, and his status was uncertain. Now that he's officially healthy, Bentley should be a huge boost to the linebacker depth for Week 14.

  • Officially questionable

    Bentley is considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs due to a knee injury.

    Analysis: Bentley was limited at practice all week and is looking like a true game-time decision. The Patriots are thin at linebacker depth, so Shilique Calhoun could potentially be called to back up inside linebacker as well as the outside should Bentley ultimately be unable to go.
