49ers | Kendrick Bourne posts second-straight 142-yard game Sun Oct 12, 10:05 PM
49ers WR Kendrick Bourne had five catches for a game-high 142 yards in Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers.
| Footballguys view: With 142 receiving yards last week and again today, Bourne has registered 100 or more receiving yards in consecutive games for the first time in his career. Bourne also became the first 49ers WR to register consecutive games with 100-or-more receiving since former WR Deebo Samuel Sr. did so in the 2023 season. Bourne continued starting in place of Ricky Pearsall (knee), while Jauan Jennings (ribs) returned in a limited capacity but revealed that he was playing with five broken ribs after the contest. If Pearsall is forced to miss a third consecutive game in Week 7, Bourne's stock would remain elevated. |

49ers | Kendrick Bourne expected to start Week 6 Sat Oct 11, 05:54 PM
San Francisco 49ers WR Kendrick Bourne is expected to start in Week 6 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with WR Ricky Pearsall (knee) out for a second straight game, and WR Jauan Jennings (rib, ankle) considered a game-time decision.

49ers | Kendrick Bourne expected to play Fri Oct 10, 07:02 PM
San Francisco 49ers WR Kendrick Bourne (rib) fully participated in practice Friday, Oct. 10, and is not on the injury report for Week 6.
| Footballguys view: Bourne stepped up massively for Mac Jones last week with Ricky Pearsall and Jauan Jennings both inactive. He might have his opportunity again. If Jennings is active, Bourne can be started as a legitimate WR2 in fantasy. If either Jennings is active, however, it's hard to view him as more than a dart throw. |

| Footballguys view: With Ricky Pearsall and Jauan Jennings at risk of missing another game, Bourne could be the top receiver for the 49ers in Week 6. Bourne caught 10-of-11 targets for 142 yards in the 49ers' Week 5 OT win over the Rams. |

49ers | Kendrick Bourne could be on fast track Wed Sep 10, 03:42 AM
San Francisco 49ers WR Kendrick Bourne could play as soon as Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints, as WR Jauan Jennings (shoulder) nursing a shoulder injury sustained in Week 1 against the Seattle Seahawks.
| Footballguys view: Let's see who practices this week for the 49ers. They are banged up all over the offense and may even be starting Mac Jones at quarterback. There are too many questions to see Bourne as a fantasy asset if he gets out there for the 49ers in Week 2. |

49ers | Kendrick Bourne lands with Niners Mon Sep 8, 12:41 PM
Free-agent WR Kendrick Bourne (Patriots) agreed to a one-year deal with the San Francisco 49ers Monday, Sept. 8. The deal is worth up to $5 million.
| Footballguys view: The move comes a day after the 49ers lost tight end George Kittle and wide receiver Jauan Jennings to injuries in their season opener. Shanahan said both players would get MRIs to determine the extent of their injuries. The Niners were already missing wideouts Brandon Aiyuk and Demarcus Robinson, so it's easy to see why the team was in the market for receiving help. Bourne played for the 49ers from 2017 to 2020, so he has familiarity with head coach Kyle Shanahan's offense that could help him find a role quickly in his second tour of duty with the team. |

NFL | Kendrick Bourne will wait to make decision Wed Sep 3, 04:26 PM
Free-agent WR Kendrick Bourne (Patriots) will not sign with a team this week and will take the weekend to decide which team is the best fit for him, according to a source. He met with the San Francisco 49ers and Washington Commanders this week.
| Footballguys view: Bourne is going to take a bit more time, and then he will make a decision. No matter where he lands, we're not expecting much from the veteran receiver. |

NFL | Two meetings for Kendrick Bourne Fri Aug 29, 05:06 PM
Free-agent WR Kendrick Bourne (Patriots) is scheduled to meet with the San Francisco 49ers Monday, Sept. 1, and the Washington Commanders Tuesday, Sept. 2, according to a source. Bourne has a framework for a deal in place with both teams.
| Footballguys view: Bourne could actually have a fantasy relevant role in San Francisco because of the plethora of wide receiver injuries there, and he spent the first four years of his career with the 49ers, so the familiarity on both sides should make them the favorite to land him. Washington pursuing him is not a great sign for Noah Brown's health or Luke McCaffrey's development. |

49ers | Kendrick Bourne of interest in San Francisco Wed Aug 27, 12:25 PM
Free-agent WR Kendrick Bourne (Patriots) is of high interest to the San Francisco 49ers, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: Bourne wanted an opportunity at playing time that wasn't going to happen as the Patriots no.5 receiver. The 49ers would have interest in the veteran because of his familiarity with the scheme and their injuries at the position. He spent five years with the 49ers, and his final season with them (2020) Bourne had 49 receptions for 667 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns in 15 games and five starts. |

Patriots | Two WRs worked with starters Thu Jun 26, 09:45 AM
New England Patriots WR Kendrick Bourne and WR Kayshon Boutte received work with the first-team offense during offseason practices.
| Footballguys view: The Patriots have an interesting group of receivers...for many reasons. Stefon Diggs and Demario Douglas are the top two receivers, and guys like Bourne and Boutte will be working behind them. Both Bourne and Boutte are intriguing dynasty prospects we like in those formats, especially with the expected growth from QB Drake Maye. |

Patriots | Several receivers on the bubble Thu May 29, 12:38 AM
New England Patriots WRs Kendrick Bourne, Kayshon Boutte, Javon Baker, and Ja'Lynn Polk are likely to have a 'spirited competition' for a place on the team's 53-man roster, in the opinion of ESPN's Mike Reiss, who considers WRs Stefon Diggs (knee), DeMario Douglas, Kyle Williams, and Mack Hollins to be the top-four receivers. Most NFL teams carry five or six wideouts, in which case the group of Bourne, Boutte, Baker, and Polk could be competing for one or two spots.
| Footballguys view: The Patriots added Stefon Diggs this offseason, and they drafted Kyle Williams (Washington State) in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft. With the receivers already in place (not named Demario Douglas), there's going to be a fierce competition for roster spots. Playing special teams to give added value will help in determining who makes the team. |
