FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne will make his long-awaited return Sunday, as the team plans to activate him off the physically unable to perform list to face the Miami Dolphins at Gillette Stadium (1 p.m. ET, Fox), a source told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Bourne, an eight-year veteran in his fourth season with the Patriots, tore his right ACL against the Dolphins on Oct. 29, 2023.

Coach Jerod Mayo said this week that Bourne was healthy and the plan was for him to return and hopefully boost an offense that ranks 31st in the NFL in scoring, averaging 13 points per game.
