New England Patriots tight end Martellus Bennett caught three passes for 38 yards during his team's 41-16 victory over the Denver Broncos on Sunday, and he discussed his injured shoulder in the aftermath.

According to Robert Klemko of The MMQB, Bennett said, "It's not about could you play, it's should you play. ... Right now I'm just like, 'F--k it,'" when talking about what went through his mind when things shifted from him potentially missing the season to electing to play.

Mark Daniels of the Providence Journal noted Bennett previously instructed his agent not to let teams claim him when he parted ways with the Green Bay Packers because he was going to undergo surgery.
