Patriots rookie wide receiver Kayshon Boutte ‘trending in the right direction’

The Kayshon Boutte saga has gone international.

As Bill Belichick took the podium on Friday at the DFB Campus in Germany, he was asked about the rookie wide receiver suiting back up Sunday for the first time since Week 1.

“We’ll see how all that goes,” Belichick said. “Kayshon’s had a good couple weeks here. It’s definitely trending in the right direction. That’s been good.”

Prior to last week’s game against the Washington Commanders, Belichick shared that Boutte had his “best week” of practice thus far. Still, however, the receiver was a healthy inactive for the eighth straight week.
