Kayshon Boutte
WR - New England Patriots
2024 Outlook
New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte was arrested on Thursday in Baton Rouge, La., for allegations of illegal sports betting while he attended LSU.
Fantasy Impact
While Boutte is now 21, the charges are for when he was under 21 at Louisiana State, and they include a felony count of computer fraud and a misdemeanor count of gambling prohibited for persons under 21, according to ESPN. Boutte's investigation is ongoing, and he is being accused of placing more than 8,900 wagers, including at least 17 bets on NCAA football games and at least six on LSU games. The situation will continue developing and it is currently unclear what legal or NFL repercussions he could face.
Kayshon Boutte was back at practice on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Boutte was sidelined from practice on Thursday, but it didn't appear to be related to an injury. He should be good to play on Sunday, but he remains off the fantasy radar.
Kayshon Boutte (shoulder) is unavailable for New England's matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
The rookie was able to return to practice on Tuesday after missing a good chunk of time thanks to a shoulder injury, but he will not be well enough to play in time for Thursday's game. The short turnaround from last Sunday's game likely played a part in that, and his next chance to see the field will come in Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs. He hasn't seen the field enough this year to have his absence make a big impact on New England's receiving core.
Kayshon Boutte was limited in practice on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Boutte makes his return after he was sidelined last week and missed practice on Monday. This gives him a chance to take the field when New England takes on the Steelers Thursday night.
Kayshon Boutte has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Fantasy Impact
Boutte closed the week with two straight missed practices. The rookie out of LSU has caught two passes in a limited role so far this season. He remains off the fantasy radar.
