DeMario Douglas and Kayshon Boutte both entered the NFL on April 29, 2023. Exactly 534 days later, during the New England Patriots’ loss to the Houston Texans, the two former sixth-round draft picks both scored their first career touchdowns.
Boutte was the first among them to find the end zone on Sunday.
With only 16 seconds on the clock in the second quarter of what was then a 14-0 deficit for his team, he was able to get a step on Texans cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. on a deep pattern down the right sideline.
