Patriots Player News

The New England Patriots have placed wide receiver Kendrick Bourne on the PUP List.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Patriots have agreed to terms on a 3-year extension for wide receiver Kendrick Bourne. The deal is reportedly worth $33 million and comes following a season where Bourne suffered a torn ACL. However, the prognosis on his injury has been positive, which is obviously confirmed by the news of his extension.

According to the Boston Herald’s Andrew Callahan, Kendrick Bourne received an offer for an extension ahead of the Scouting Combine, with the Patriots clearly making it known they’d like to keep him. However, the reports from MassLive are that the team and Bourne’s camp aren’t seeing eye-to-eye on his market value.

According to ESPN's Mike Reiss, the Patriots and Kendrick Bourne have yet to make progress on a new contract, with sources telling Reiss there have been "no substantial contract extension talks" at this time.

Callahan reports that negotiations between the Patriots and Bourne have not advanced since the team approached his camp about re-signing shortly after the receiver tore his ACL in late October. He also reports the wideout reportedly visited the team facility last week and is ahead of schedule with his recovery.
