New England Patriots linebacker Ja'Whaun Bentley suffered a torn left pectoral muscle during a game against the Seattle Seahawks, which will likely sideline him for the remainder of the season. Bentley, a key player for the Patriots with over 100 tackles in each of the past three seasons, was injured in the first quarter and subsequently ruled out. This injury adds to the Patriots' defensive woes, as they have already lost other key players, including defensive tackle Christian Barmore and traded pass rusher Matthew Judon.
