Patriots | No serious talks between NE, Kendrick Bourne Tue Feb 27, 01:19 AM
New England Patriots impending free-agent WR Kendrick Bourne has not had any significant contract talks with the Patriots at this point, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: This was expected by most reporters around the team. Bourne suffered a torn ACL in the Patriots' Week 8 loss to the Dolphins, ending his season. He's been on the road to recovery since, but there should be an "okay" market for his services on the open market. |

Patriots | Kendrick Bourne hopes to be ready for opener Sun Feb 4, 01:07 PM
New England Patriots WR Kendrick Bourne (knee) said he is ahead of schedule in his recovery and believes he will be ready for the start of the 2024 regular season.
| Footballguys view: Bourne suffered a torn ACL in the team's Week 8 loss to the Dolphins, and he's been on the road to recovery ever since. He will be brought along cautiously this offseason, and there's a chance he could participate at some point in training camp. His status for the beginning of the 2024 season is up in the air, and he's unlikely to be at full strength until halfway through this season. |

Patriots | Kendrick Bourne out for season Mon Oct 30, 09:18 AM
New England Patriots WR Kendrick Bourne (knee) suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee in Week 8 and was lost for the season.
| Footballguys view: This just flat-out sucks. Not much is exciting in the Patriots' offense, but Bourne was a bright spot for the passing game. He was in the midst of a breakout season in 2023, catching 37 passes for 406 yards and four touchdowns through eight games. Rookie WR Demario Douglas (dubbed 7-11 by Cecil and Sigmund on The Audible because he's always open) should be a hot waiver wire addition this week as he steps into a larger role. |

Patriots | Kendrick Bourne leads team with 10 catches Sun Oct 15, 08:13 PM
Kendrick Bourne led the Patriots with 10 catches for 89 yards on 11 targets in the 21-17 loss to the Raiders
| Footballguys view: Mac Jones remains the quarterback for now, and that could give Bourne a shot at being fantasy relevant against the Bills. The team was without Juju Smith-Schuster and they have turned away from tight ends Hunter Henry and Mike Gesicki in the passing game. Bourne might be worth carrying in PPR leagues if only because his short range game matches what the Patriots can actually do in the passing game. |

Patriots | Bill Belichick praises Kendrick Bourne Mon Aug 21, 01:51 PM
New England Patriots WR Kendrick Bourne caught passes on the first two plays of the team's Aug. 19 preseason game against the Green Bay Packers, continuing what has been a solid offseason for him.'He had a good spring. That spring led into having a good training camp. He's done very well in all phases of the game. He's played multiple spots, caught the ball well, blocked well. He's had a good camp,' head coach Bill Belichick said of Bourne.
| Footballguys view: Belichick doesn't throw around compliments often, so we'll take note here. Bourne is competing for the no.3 spot behind DeVante Parker and JuJu Smith-Schuster. We're not expecting much from a fantasy perspective, so Bourne is best left on the waiver wire in most leagues. |

Patriots | Parker extension shouldn't enhance or limit pursuit of Hopkins Sun Jul 2, 12:13 PM
Mike Reiss, of ESPN, reports that the contract extension for WR DeVante Parker shouldn't "enhance or limit" the pursuit of free agent DeAndre Hopkins.
| Footballguys view: Some wondered if the extension helped the pursuit of Hopkins by opening up cap room, but most New England beat writers think that wasn't a big consideration in making the deal with Parker (and the extension for Ja'Whuan Bentley) wasn't done with that goal in mind. When the Patriots had Hopkins in for a visit, Parker's roster spot seemed to be in danger, but now Kendrick Bourne is the receiver who is potentially on the chopping block if Hopkins is signed. |

Patriots | Kendrick Bourne may be on the move Tue Oct 18, 02:25 PM
New England Patriots WR Kendrick Bourne 'would welcome a change in uniform due to declining opportunities,' although the Patriots appear inclined to keep him on the roster, according to ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler.
| Footballguys view: Bourne could use a change of scenery. He's not getting used much by the Patriots, gathering in only 11 catches over the first six games of the season. The Raiders are a team who is frequently rumored to be interested in Bourne. |

Patriots | Kendrick Bourne apparently battling turf toe Tue Oct 18, 01:45 AM
New England Patriots WR Kendrick Bourne (toe) didn't play much in Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns, and it was reported Monday, Oct. 17 that he is dealing with turf toe, although a source said 'as of now (it) doesn't seem that serious.'
| Footballguys view: A turf toe that is 'not serious' is still a bad injury to deal with. Bourne went down early in the game against the Browns. That led to more playing time for rookie WR Tyquan Thornton - and he came through in a big way with two touchdowns. With Thornton's emergence, the Patriots have no need to rush Bourne back from an injury that will need plenty of time to properly heal. |

New England Patriots WR Kendrick Bourne was unexpectedly inactive for the team's preseason Week 2 contest on Friday, Aug. 19. Head coach Bill Belichick didn't give a reason why, saying Bourne was simply 'unavailable.'
| Footballguys view: Things change pretty quickly around here. Earlier this offseason, there were reporters speculating Bournce could be "Deebo Samuel-like" for the offense. Now, Bourne has been removed from practice a couple of times and missed this latest preseason game. He's in danger of losing his roster spot to be sure. |
