Patriots' Kayshon Boutte seeks trade after A.J. Brown acquisition

Kayshon Boutte has expressed interest in a trade from the New England Patriots following the team's acquisition of A.J. Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles. Adam Schefter noted that Boutte has not attended OTA sessions, and his opportunities diminish with Brown joining the roster. The Chicago Bears, Kansas City Chiefs, and Las Vegas Raiders are considered potential trade destinations for Boutte. Despite his strong performance in 2025, where he recorded 551 yards and six touchdowns, Boutte is now projected to be the third receiver in a crowded Patriots receiving corps. Trade discussions are anticipated this summer as the Patriots look to leverage Boutte's value.
