2023 Fantasy Outlook
After a strong first two years at LSU, Boutte appeared to be on his way to being an early round selection in the 2023 NFL Draft. However, during his 2022 junior season with the Tigers, he recorded just 48 catches for 538 yards and two touchdowns on 74 targets. Then, following subpar results at the combine, Boutte tumbled to the Patriots in the sixth round of April's draft. Given where he was taken, the 5-11, 195-pounder isn't guaranteed a key role as a rookie, let alone a roster spot. Still, the potential is there for Boutte (formerly a standout college recruit) to bounce back as a pro and turn into a huge bargain for New England. Read Past Outlooks

Limited role as rookie
WRNew England Patriots
January 11, 2024
Boutte finished the 2023 regular season with two catches (on seven targets) for 19 yards in five games with the Patriots.
ANALYSIS
During his rookie season, Boutte logged just 117 snaps on offense, per Evan Lazar of the team's official site, but the 2023 sixth-rounder is viewed as a player with some untapped potential, given the promise that he displayed early on during his college career at LSU. Looking ahead to the 2024 season, Boutte will look to carve out a role in New England's offense, but at this stage where he lands in the wideout pecking order hinges in large part on the team's upcoming roster moves via free agency and the draft.

Making push for roster spot
WRNew England Patriots
August 22, 2023
Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald has projected Boutte to make the Patriots' roster to begin the regular season.
ANALYSIS
Boutte arrived at LSU as a top recruit and had an excellent freshman season before sputtering in his next two campaigns. He slipped to the sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft as a result, though he has drawn praise for his performances during both training camp practices and preseason games. Boutte showcased his potential with a 42-yard touchdown Saturday against the Packers, which could be enough to land him a roster spot.
