2023 Fantasy Outlook
In his third season as a pro, Uche really hit his stride as a pass rusher, racking up 11.5 sacks in 15 games. While the 2020 second-rounder recorded just 27 tackles overall, his ability to get to the QB boosted his profile in New England's defense. In 2023, the 24-year-old again will remain a key pass-rushing cog for the team along with Matthew Judon and Deatrich Wise, among others. Read Past Outlooks

Returning to New England
Uche has agreed to terms on a one-year deal with the Patriots, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Uche reportedly had bigger offers elsewhere, but he opted to return to Foxborough for less. The 2020 second-round pick has played four seasons with the Pats and was both a depth defender and special teams contributor last season. He currently projects to start opposite Matthew Judon (biceps) at outside linebacker in 2024.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Name propped in trade rumors
Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reported Saturday that Uche has garnered trade interest ahead of the Oct. 31 deadline.
ANALYSIS
Uche has not played a game in which he has been on the field for more than 50 percent of defensive snaps this year and has just six tackles and two sacks in six games. His low usage is due to the injuries he has dealt with since the beginning of the season, and he is now dealing with a foot injury that caused him to miss Week 7 against the Bills and has ruled him out for Sunday's contest against the Dolphins. The 2020 second-round pick out of Michigan is in the final year of his rookie contract and could bring value to a team in need of pass rushing depth, though Uche's health will be a concern for teams looking for his services.
