Kendrick Bourne is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for wide receivers. Target Bourne as a free agent add off waivers for Week 7 of the 2023 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 17% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The New England passing attack has been virtually nonexistent in recent weeks, and this past weekend, there was a shakeup in their receiver utilization. Kendrick Bourne played on 56 of the team's 60 snaps and ran 34 routes on 37 dropbacks. He operated as their No. 1 receiver in terms of snaps and routes.

That was followed up in targets, with Bourne leading the team with 10. No other receiver or tight end had more than three. He finished with 10 receptions and 89 yards. Bourne's playing time has been a bit all over the place this season. He has three games with a snap share higher than 85% and three games with a snap share less than 55%.
In Week 1 when Bourne played 91%, he finished with 11 targets, six receptions, 64 yards, and two touchdowns. Considering how productive he's been when he's played, it's fair to expect that utilization to continue.
