The New England Patriots decided to move on from wide receiver Kayshon Boutte in a deal that doesn't come as much of a surprise.
The Patriots sent him to the Houston Texans for safety Jaylen Reed and a 2028 seventh-round pick.
Boutte, who has proven some nice things over the first three years of his NFL career in New England, now has an opportunity to get more touches in Houston. The recently traded Patriots receiver, who starred at LSU, requested a trade during the offseason and said he wanted to go to a team that would give him more playing time.
Questions remained about whether the Patriots would move on from Boutte because of what he means to the team, but according to the latest, New England felt it could move on because of its existing wide receiver depth.
