Tavai posted nine tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a pass breakup in Sunday's 19-3 win over the Bears.
The Patriots sacked Bears rookie QB Caleb Williams a whopping nine times, and Tavai got in on the action with his first sack of the season. The 2019 second-round pick has averaged 6.8 tackles per game this season, and he'll certainly continue to have viability as he approaches a second straight 100-tackle campaign.
