NFL analyst says WR Kendrick Bourne is Patriots’ most underrated player

Kendrick Bourne was arguably the New England Patriots’ most important acquisition during the team’s spending frenzy in 2021.

Bourne, 26, was brought in on a three-year deal worth $15 million and he was alongside Jakobi Meyers as the Patriots’ best receiver. He grabbed 55 receptions with 800 yards and five touchdowns — adding on 12 rushes for 125 yards. In comparison, Nelson Agholor was brought in on a $22 million deal and he only had 37 catches for 473 yards.

Along with bringing productivity on the field, Bourne was one of the most energetic personalities in all situations.
