Martellus Bennett went down in a heap with an ankle injury early in the Patriots game against the Browns. It looked like it might be serious, but Bennett was able to come back and score 3 touchdowns from Tom Brady. His inspiration for bouncing back? Marvel character Luke Cage, subject of a recent Netflix series.
