2024 Fantasy Outlook
After being selected by the Patriots in the sixth round of the 2023 draft, Boutte caught two passes for 17 yards while playing in four games. At six foot, 217 pounds, Boutte tested poorly before his rookie season. The receiver posted a 50th percentile 40-yard dash time. In addition, Boutte’s explosiveness testing was in the 23rd percentile. Finally, he had a 43rd percentile agility score. After the Patriots added Ja’Lynn Polk and Javon Baker in the draft, it may be difficult for the former LSU player to have a prominent role in the Patriots offense, though Boutte should have a chance to earn a role during training camp.

Coach's Decision
September 15, 2024
Boutte (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
Boutte didn't play any snaps in Week 1 despite being active, and he now won't even suit up in Week 2. It's a relatively discouraging development for Boutte given New England's lack of elite talent at wideout.

Incentives and milestones had a big impact on Week 18 fantasy scoring and helped drive a throwback week for some of the league's older running backs.
2023 Fantasy Outlook
After a strong first two years at LSU, Boutte appeared to be on his way to being an early round selection in the 2023 NFL Draft. However, during his 2022 junior season with the Tigers, he recorded just 48 catches for 538 yards and two touchdowns on 74 targets. Then, following subpar results at the combine, Boutte tumbled to the Patriots in the sixth round of April's draft. Given where he was taken, the 5-11, 195-pounder isn't guaranteed a key role as a rookie, let alone a roster spot. Still, the potential is there for Boutte (formerly a standout college recruit) to bounce back as a pro and turn into a huge bargain for New England.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Stock rises after preseason opener
WRNew England Patriots
August 10, 2024
Chad Graff of The Athletic lists Boutte, who caught three passes on six targets for 53 yards, as a player whose stock rose following Thursday's 17-3 preseason win over Carolina.
ANALYSIS
Boutte's six targets Thursday were a team high, and his 31 snaps on offense were third-most among wide receivers behind Javon Baker and Ja'Lynn Polk, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. What's more, Boutte's chance of making the Patriots' 53-man roster received a boost after JuJu Smith-Schuster was released by New England on Friday. Boutte, a 2023 sixth-round draft pick out of LSU, is now battling Tyquan Thornton and Jalen Reagor for a depth spot at wide receiver.
