Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte is a prominent trade candidate, reportedly expressing interest in being traded. Despite this, he plans to attend mandatory minicamp and focuses on controllable aspects of his career. The Patriots may seek a fifth or sixth-round pick for him, especially after acquiring WR A.J. Brown and signing WR Romeo Doubs, making Boutte expendable. Drafted in the sixth round, Boutte had a productive 2025 season with 33 receptions for 551 yards and six touchdowns.
