Overview

  • Bleacher Report's Alex Kay proposed that the Jets send a seventh-round pick to New England for Kendrick Bourne.
  • The concept is speculative and not a reported negotiation or agreement.
  • Reporting cited by The Sporting News notes the Jets are surveying veteran wideouts to support new quarterback Justin Fields.
  • New England's receiver group is viewed as crowded, with preseason buzz around rookie Efton Chism III potentially affecting roles.
  • Bourne, 30, is entering his ninth season after stints with the 49ers and Patriots, with a career-best 800 yards and five touchdowns in 2021.
