Josh Uche gives contract update, says he'd ‘love' to stay with Patriots originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
Top-tier pass rushers are very important in today's NFL. It's hard to be a perennial Super Bowl contender without defenders who can create pressure around and/or sack the opposing quarterback on a consistent basis.
New England Patriots linebacker Josh Uche enjoyed a breakout 2022 season that saw him look like one of the league's premier pass rushers at times. He tallied a career-high 11.5 sacks, in addition to tallying 27 total tackles and two forced fumbles in 15 games.
