The Patriots signed DT Davon Godchaux to a two-year, $20.8 million extension that includes $17.85 million guaranteed, his agents told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Godchaux started 16 games last season for New England, his first with the team after playing the first four years of his career with the Miami Dolphins.
He played 59% of the defensive snaps, usually coming off the field in obvious passing situations, as his primary role was to play with power inside and hold up at the point of attack. His 65 tackles ranked fifth on the team, and he added one sack.
