Kendrick Bourne fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 6 (2024). Should you start or sit Kendrick Bourne for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR6
ANALYSIS: New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne (knee) is expected to play in Week 6 when his team takes on the Houston Texans, but he isn't worth starting. It's not known how close he is to full health, and with a new starting quarterback in rookie Drake Maye, New England's offense could be very unpredictable.

There's little to suggest that he'd be worthy of a starting spot. He's never finished better than WR31 in full-PPR scoring in his career, and that was in 2021. He played 16 games in 2022 yet finished as the WR83. He's listed as the second receiver on the depth chart, but he's recovering from an ACL tear, and likely won't see much of a workload.
It's possible he doesn't see the field much at all. He was only in the game for 15 snaps in total, and his workload should be ramped up gradually. A receiver who has never been great coming off this kind of injury who's nearly 30 years old with a new quarterback shouldn't be on rosters in most leagues and should be sat if he is.
