Kendrick Bourne, Pats Agree On New Deal

Sunday, March 10, 9:22 PM

Wide receiver Kendrick Bourne agreed to a new deal to remain in New England. The contract is for three years, and he'll be eligible to earn up to $33 million. The 28-year-old amassed 406 yards and four touchdowns off 37 catches last season. However, despite appearing on track for a career year, Bourne suffered a torn ACL during the AFC East battle with the Miami Dolphins in Week 8. Fortunately, he should be ready to go for the 2024-25 campaign. But with a new head coach in the equation and Mac Jones out of the picture, Bourne could have a tough time finding his rhythm. His knee injury is also something fantasy managers should keep in the back of their heads. Yet, while reaching for him during fantasy drafts heading into the new season isn't recommended, he's worth grabbing if he's available later than expected.

Braxton Berrios Re-Signs With Dolphins

Sunday, March 17, 1:10 PM

Free-agent wide receiver Braxton Berrios re-signed with the Miami Dolphins on Saturday on a one-year deal worth up to $3 million, according to his agents, Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey. Berrios will return to Miami to provide receiving depth behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Erik Ezukanma in 2024. The 28-year-old former sixth-round selection of the New England Patriots in 2018 out of Miami of Florida caught 27 of his 33 targets for 238 yards and one touchdown in 16 regular-season games (one start) last year in his first year with the Dolphins. Berrios isn't on the fantasy radar unless your league counts points for return yards, as he's likely to be Miami's primary kick returner again in 2024. In five NFL seasons, Berrios has 134 receptions for 1,323 yards and only six touchdowns in 81 games (six starts).
