Patriots Player Departure Bourne released (Update: Signs w/49ers)

[Joey007]

 

[Ross12]

Trade market fizzled, salary is too high to carry into week 1 where it'd become guaranteed.

 

[BadMoFo]

Guess we had no takers for a trade. ;(

[Love The Drake]

He will be a Niner before the day ends.

Can the Bourne cult finally now relent?

Assume Baker will not remain on 53.

Diggs, Douglas, Boutte, Williams, Hollis and Chism seem safe.

 

[TheRainMaker]

SF or Miami.

Pats should've kicked his ass to the curb in 2024, but immediately re-signed him coming off a major injury. One of Wolf's many dumb moves that season.

His tenure here was an interesting one.

Ultimately I think he was pretty good and mostly a fun watch.

Thx Bourne

Man, I get it - probably wouldn't produce a lot of stats this year here.
But, kind of sad, he never really had things work out for him to fully hit his potential. He was a great team guy and such a good attitude. Oh well, best of luck to him.

Always entertaining personality, I liked him. Will miss him!

 

[Love The Drake]

Niner or Commnader.

Teams playing a bit dirty with the Pats…

Duggar, Jennings, and Bourne all should have had SOME trade value but teams seem unwilling to deal with the Pats even if it means they have to compete to sign players who end up released.

Duggar, the $$$ is obviously the issue but Bourne and Jennings are reasonable for their positions.

I agree. He languished under Fat Matt in 2022 but was having a career year in 2023 before he blew out his knee. Was solid in 2021.

Wish things turned out better for him here.

Such is the NFL.

He's making what 5 million or would have?

ZOMG 8 RECEIVERS oh wait lol

 

[billdog3484]

Total incompetence. kept him and released another player. now both gone and we got nothing

Bourne is the 2nd veteran who asked for a release as Epps did as well. Guys see the writing on the wall and know where they are on a teams depth chart. Guys a great locker room guy and had a nice year in 21.. however with Boutte, Chism the younger guys with upside was the right way to go.

There was no point to not just making this decision yesterday but lol all you want
