Patriots consider trading Kayshon Boutte after acquiring A.J. Brown

The New England Patriots traded for A.J. Brown on June 1, 2026, acquiring the wide receiver from the Philadelphia Eagles. Following this acquisition, analysts suggest the Patriots may trade Kayshon Boutte, who has not participated in team workouts and could seek a larger role elsewhere. The New York Giants, needing depth at wide receiver, are mentioned as a potential trade partner for Boutte. Meanwhile, the Patriots are encouraged to pursue Kayvon Thibodeaux from the Giants due to possible overcrowding in New York's edge rusher rotation.
