Kendrick Bourne Suffers Torn ACL

Kendrick Bourne Suffers Torn ACL

one year ago

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne (knee) suffered a torn right ACL in the Week 8 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, according to a source. Bourne will miss the remainder of the season and can be safely dropped in single-year fantasy leagues at this time. The 28-year-old was the most consistent wideout for a struggling Patriots offense all year, and he'll finish with 37 receptions on 55 targets for 406 yards and four touchdowns in eight games. The Patriots also lost DeVante Parker to a head injury on Sunday, so they could be down to JuJu Smith-Schuster, Demario Douglas and Jalen Reagor heading into a Week 9 date with the Washington Commanders. Tight ends Hunter Henry and Mike Gesicki should also have bigger roles moving forward with Bourne done for the year.
