Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte faces 90% chance of being traded
Summary

Kayshon Boutte of the New England Patriots is predicted to have a 90% chance of being traded before the start of the 2026 NFL season. The Patriots have strengthened their wide receiver group with recent acquisitions, including A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs, which has diminished Boutte's role on the team. Reports suggest that trading the 24-year-old could be beneficial for both him and the team, especially with Boutte entering free agency after this season. Potential suitors may include teams like the Houston Texans, who are seeking to bolster their receiving corps following a recent injury to one of their players.
