FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Quick-hit thoughts and notes around the New England Patriots and NFL:

1. Intrigue with Boutte: Rookie wide receiver Kayshon Boutte was hoping to avoid attracting a media horde at his locker last week. So he pointed to a far, tucked-away corner of the locker room as a place he'd be more comfortable for an interview, and led a reporter in that direction.

The sixth-round pick from LSU figured he'd be a popular subject after leading receiver Kendrick Bourne was lost for the season to a torn ACL and with veteran DeVante Parker still in concussion protocol, but something still felt off to him.
