Bill Belichick says Kayshon Boutte is taking advantage of opportunities in practice with other receivers injured

Kayshon Boutte hasn’t gotten a chance to play this season for the New England Patriots since Week 1. The sixth-round rookie receiver didn’t record a reception on four targets in the Patriots’ Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, and hasn’t played since.

But following injuries to Kendrick Bourne and DeVante Parker last week, Boutte’s could be getting more opportunities. Boutte’s taking advantage of those extra opportunities, according to his head coach.

“This has probably been his best week,” Bill Belichick told reporters on Friday.
