Bennett told reporters after the game Burfict apologized.
"He apologized," Bennett said, per USA Today. "He said he didn't try to do it, but it's part of the game.
"Stuff happens.”
NFL Network reports no suspension is likely, but Burfict could face a fine.
#Bengals LB Vontaze Burfict’s hit on #Patriots’ Martellus Bennett should follow standard discipline process. Expect big fine, not suspension
