Patriots free agent wide receiver Kendrick Bourne reportedly ‘expected to test the market’

Kendrick Bourne has expressed his desire to return to the New England Patriots as a free agent this offseason, but it appears no deal is imminent between the two sides.

In fact, according to a report by Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2, the wide receiver is “currently expected to test the market” when it opens in mid-March. If so, the belief is that he will have his fair share of suitors even after ending the 2023 season on injured reserve due to a torn ACL.

Bourne, who will turn 29 in August, had a productive campaign before his season-ending knee injury.
