Michael Bennett perfectly compares Bill Belichick and Tom Brady to ‘Star Wars’ characters

Michael Bennett is now officially a member of the Super Bowl-champion New England Patriots.

And apparently he’s excited about his new situation, and why wouldn’t he be, seeing how the Patriots have had some success the past 19 years or so?

The former Philadelphia Eagles defensive end, who had nine sacks last season, made news this week by saying that he’d stay in the locker room during the anthem this year and that he wanted to talk to Tom Brady and Bill Belichick about Donald Trump.

Those are actually pretty spot-on comparisons.

It should be fun to see Bennett, and maybe his brother, working with a team that he admitted he used to hate.
