Leading receiver hoping to re-sign with Patriots in 2024

Kendrick Bourne is hoping he hasn’t played his last snap with the New England Patriots.

Before suffering a season-ending knee injury, Bourne was the Patriots’ leading receiver. In only eight games, he had 37 receptions for 406 yards and four touchdowns. Unfortunately, a torn ACL brought an end to what could have been a career-high year of production from Bourne.

Rookie sixth-round draft pick Demario Douglas has stepped up to help fill the void in his absence. The two teammates recently had an exchange that was caught Instagram, which started with Douglas telling Bourne that he missed him.
