‘It’s just dope’: Kendrick Bourne praises Patriots’ new offense despite quiet training camp

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne has been picked by many experts around the league to be a breakout player in 2022. Looking at Bourne’s 2021 stats, it’s easy to see why that could be the case.

In his first season with the Patriots, Bourne posted career highs across the board. He had 55 receptions for 800 yards and five touchdowns while playing the entire season with a rookie quarterback.

The start to training camp in his sixth season hasn’t been the best for Bourne, though. Through the first 12 practices, Bourne only has two of practices in which he’s recorded multiple receptions during 11-on-11s and has a few practices in which he hasn’t recorded a reception during such sessions.
