Start at the ends of the tangles and see if you can make any progress without too much pain.
If not, take him in. He might need to get the snarls cut or shaved out. Then if it starts again in the future you'd know to brush them out straight away.
We did have a cat when I was a kid that had to get shaved since he'd go outside and get burdocks stuck in his fur.
