After two weeks of uncharacteristically poor defensive performances, the Pittsburgh Steelers added help by signing linebacker Ja’Whaun Bentley to the practice squad ahead of Sunday’s game in New England, the team announced Wednesday morning.
The former Patriots three-time captain was released by the team in March after a seven-year tenure with the franchise. While in New England, Bentley racked up 509 tackles, 10.5 sacks and 29 quarterback hits in 83 NFL games. His 2024 season ended prematurely when he tore his left pectoral muscle in Week 2, but before that, Bentley totaled more than 100 tackles in each of the 2021, 2022 and 2023 seasons, setting a career high with 122 in 2022. Bentley initially joined New England as a fifth-round draft pick out of Purdue in 2018. He was the first three-time captain in Boilermakers history.
