New England Patriots DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas caught all four of his targets for 20 receiving yards during Sunday's Week 13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Although four targets represent solid volume, Douglas' low yardage total was not enough to put him on the fantasy radar in Week 13. In fact, this was his lowest yardage and fantasy points total since Week 8 against the New York Jets. As New England pass-catchers Hunter Henry, Austin Hooper, Kayshon Boutte, and Kendrick Bourne continue to command significant target shares, there may be fewer opportunities for Douglas. He should rank as a WR4 in fantasy football on the other side of the Patriots' Week 14 bye.

New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte caught three of his six targets for 41 yards during Sunday's Week 13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The 22-year-old played 71 of the Patriots' 72 offensive snaps on Sunday; this 99 percent snap share was his highest mark of the season. He now has 12 catches for 127 yards over his last four games, ranking as the overall WR56 in PPR leagues during that span. Boutte's high snap share and big-play ability make him an intriguing depth option in fantasy football, but managers can't justify starting him until he delivers FLEX-caliber production on a more consistent basis. The second-year receiver's next chance to make an impact will come on the other side of the Patriots' bye in Week 15 when they take on the Arizona Cardinals.

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne caught all three of his targets for 39 yards during Sunday's Week 13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. He played 64 percent of the team's offensive snaps and ranked third among Patriots wide receivers with 27 routes run. The 29-year-old now has at least three catches in each of his last three games, totaling 31.5 fantasy points (PPR) and ranking as the overall WR36 during that span. It's also worth noting that Bourne's production and fantasy value would have been even higher if not for a touchdown reception that was called back due to a penalty. Moving forward, Bourne's volume and scoring potential make him a fringe top-36 fantasy receiver on the other side of the Patriots' Week 14 bye.

New England Patriots tight end Austin Hooper caught all four of his targets for 42 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Hooper now has a touchdown in each of his last two games. He also has four targets in each of his last four contests, ranking as the overall TE8 during that span (and eight slots ahead of teammate Hunter Henry). The 30-year-old has continued to develop his rapport with rookie quarterback Drake Maye, and he has plenty of momentum heading into the Patriots' bye week. It's tough to trust a backup tight end in fantasy football, but if there's one worth starting, it's Hooper. He'll rank as a mid-to-low fantasy TE2 when the Patriots return to action in Week 15.

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry caught seven of his nine targets for 75 yards during Sunday's Week 13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Although Henry's streak without a touchdown was extended to seven games on Sunday, the veteran was still highly productive in a matchup against a Colts defense that has struggled to defend tight ends. The 29-year-old actually had a touchdown vultured by fellow tight end Austin Hooper, but he still had a productive fantasy performance of his own by turning in his fifth double-digit points total over the last eight weeks. Henry now ranks as the overall TE10 in the span since Drake Maye took over as the Patriots' starting quarterback in Week 6. He should be started in most leagues on the other side of New England's Week 14 bye.
