Kendrick Bourne

The Patriots re-signed Kendrick Bourne to a 3-year, $19.5 million contract. He will be 29 years old in 2024, coming off a Week 8 torn ACL injury. Before his injury, Bourne was the fantasy WR28 averaging 10.2 points per game in half-PPR (38th). Led the Patriots with a 19.4% target share with a 28% air yards share. He will likely be in the starter's chair until a rookie or younger WR usurps him on the depth chart.

The New England Patriots and WR Kendrick Bourne have come to terms on a three-year deal worth up to $33 million.

Fantasy Impact

A few days before ultimately signing back with the Patriots, Bourne said he would prefer to return to New England in 2024, and the team got the deal done shortly after. Halfway through last season, Bourne tore his ACL, but he said he plans to be ready to go by training camp. He may be off to a slow start in 2024 because of the injury, and he'll be adjusting to a new man under center as well with Mac Jones now in Jacksonville.
