Patriots' Davon Godchaux: Pats' leading tackler in Germany
Rotowire
Godchaux recorded eight tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 10-6 loss against the Colts.
Godchaux recorded eight tackles for the second game in a row in Week 10, and he totaled at least five tackles for the fourth time in the last six weeks. Unfortunately for IDP managers though, he hasn't been able to sack the quarterback or force any turnovers in 2023. After New England's bye in Week 11, the Patriots will travel to face a run-heavy Giants team.

Patriots' Davon Godchaux: Signs extension with Pats
Rotowire
New England signed Godchaux to a two-year, $20.8 million contract extension Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
The 27-year-old defensive tackle performed well as a starter for the Patriots last year, and they saw fit to extend his contract despite the fact that 2021 second-round pick Christian Barmore is waiting in the wings. Godchaux is more of a gap-filler and double-team eater than a tackling machine or a pass rusher, so he likely won't be fantasy relevant any time soon despite being a quality real-life player.

Dolphins' Davon Godchaux: Returns to sack column
Rotowire
Godchaux recorded seven tackles (four solo) and a half-sack during Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Browns.
Godchaux notched a season-high tackle count during Sunday's loss, and he now has 1.5 sacks on the year. His consistency as a run stopper makes Godchaux a viable IDP asset, but he lacks much upside as a pass rusher. The third-year pro will look to keep his momentum up against the Eagles in Week 13.
