New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte has gradually become one of quarterback Drake Maye's most trusted weapons. He has commanded six targets in each of his last three games, and last week, he finished with an impressive four catches for 47 yards. The second-year LSU product still isn't a top recommendation for fantasy lineups, but he should at least continue to generate some buzz and is worth monitoring going forward. His next chance to turn heads is this Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams, who have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to wide receivers. Boutte currently ranks as a low-end WR4.
New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte caught four of his six targets for 47 yards during Sunday's Week 10 win over the Chicago Bears. The second-year receiver has blossomed into one of New England's top playmaking receivers, commanding 18 targets over his last three games and averaging 15.5 yards per catch since Week 4. Fantasy managers can't quite depend on him in fantasy football yet, but he's worth monitoring after playing 97 percent of snaps and catching four passes (both career-highs) on Sunday. Next up, he'll face the Los Angeles Rams in Week 11.
New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte has recently emerged as his team's busiest and most productive player at the position, but even he is still tough to trust heading into Week 9 against the Tennessee Titans. The 22-year-old has played north of 80 percent of offensive snaps in each of his last three games, but he's averaging just 2.3 catches, 46 receiving yards, and 0.3 touchdowns during that span. Even if New England keeps Sunday's game close against a subpar Titans team, Tennesse's solid defense will make it tough for Boutte to be productive. The Titans have allowed the third-fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers who play out wide, like Boutte. The second-year receiver also has to deal with uncertainty at the quarterback position where Drake Maye (concussion) is listed as questionable.
New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte led his position group with six targets, three catches, and 46 receiving yards during Sunday's Week 8 win over the New York Jets. He also led the unit in snap share (83.6 percent) once again, showcasing a valuable rapport with both Drake Maye (head) and Jacoby Brissett. Although Boutte did have an impressive game, it still wasn't enough to justify starting him in fantasy football. At best, he's a low-end bench option given the Patriots' subpar offense. He'll now get ready for Week 9 against the Titans.
New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte has led the position group in snaps over the last two weeks, but his low target share as a deep threat in the offense has kept him off the fantasy radar for the time being. The second-year receiver emerged out of nowhere in Drake Maye's first start in Week 6, catching his first career touchdown pass. Despite that big play and increase in snaps, Boutte has been held to just four catches over the last two games. This week, he faces the New York Jets, who have been impressive against non-slot receivers this year. Still, they did get ripped apart by George Pickens last week, showing susceptibility to surrendering big plays. Boutte has big-play upside, so it's just a matter of him shaking a defender and creating an opportunity for himself. Until he can do that on a more consistent basis, though, he'll remain off the fantasy radar.
