Patriots' Michael Bennett suspended one game by team

New England Patriots defensive lineman Michael Bennett has been suspended by the team for one game.

What It Means:

Bennett has been disciplined for "conduct detrimental to the team," which, according to him, stems from a "philosophical disagreement" with a coach. It's certainly an odd situation, and not one very reminiscent of the 'Belichick Way' that has been the norm in New England since the coach's arrival. In any case, keep a close eye on his status as the issue gets resolved.

In six games this season, Bennett has four tackles and a trio of sacks.
