Could Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte be in line for bigger role?

The New England Patriots have struggled with consistent production at the wide receiver position. But could help be on the way?

Rookie wideout Kayshon Boutte was second in line in practice drills on Wednesday, per ESPN’s Mike Reiss. That on its own doesn’t mean much, but you have to wonder if Boutte’s snaps will increase with all of the recent injuries at wide receiver for New England.

The team is banged up at the position with Devante Parker and Kendrick Bourne both going down with injuries in the Week 8 loss to the Miami Dolphins.
