Availability
Kayshon Boutte caught 1-of-2 targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 36-31 loss to the Bills.
Fantasy Impact
Boutte was acquired from New England late in the preseason to shore up the Texans' wide receiver corps. His big-play potential is known from the last couple of years with the Patriots, but his targets were predictably limited in an offense that is still relatively new to him. Boutte is a wait-and-see bench stash in standard fantasy leagues.
Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said Kayshon Boutte will play in Week 1 against the Bills.
Fantasy Impact
Boutte was acquired in a trade with the Patriots back on August 24. Ryans said he has been “picking up the playbook really well.” He'll be a deep threat on the outside for CJ Stroud.
The Patriots are sending WR Kayshon Boutte to the Texans in exchange for safety Jaylen Reed and a 2028 seventh-round pick.
Fantasy Impact
Boutte has had his name in trade rumors for most of the offseason following the Patriots offseason additions of AJ Brown and Romeo Doubs. Boutte will get a fresh start in a wide open wide receiver room with Houston. He should compete for a role as a field stretcher for the Texans.
Kayshon Boutte was significantly involved in Tuesday's practice.
Fantasy Impact
Boutte reported to minicamp despite his name being in the middle of trade rumors. It will continue to be something to monitor heading into training camp.
