2 years agoNew England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne is likely to have an increased role going forward, according to Jeff Howe of The Athletic. It sounds like Bourne was late to a pregame meeting before their final preseason game. That landed him in the doghouse with the coaching staff. In Week 1, Bourne finished with one catch in his two snaps he played against the Miami Dolphins. It would be silly for the Patriots to continue punishing Bourne when he can clearly benefit the offense. The expectation is that he'll have a bigger role on the team going forward. However, he'll likely only be a low-end flex option in deep leagues. It remains to be seen how much he'll actually get targeted in New England.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller
