Kayshon Boutte

NE Wide Receiver #80

Patriots declared WR Kayshon Boutte, QB Will Grier, OT Sidy Sow, OT Tyrone Wheatley Jr., and CB Jonathan Jones inactive for Week 3 against the Jets.

It looks like the Patriots will continue rolling with the wideout rotation of DeVante Parker, Kendrick Bourne, and Demario Douglass. None of these receivers has much fantasy appeal against a stellar Jets defense. Parker operated as the team’s WR1 last week against the Dolphins.
Jonathan Jones

NE Cornerback #31

Patriots ruled CB Jonathan Jones out for Week 3 against the Jets.

New England again finds themselves thin in the secondary with three of their top four corners out for Week 3. Rookies Christian Gonzalez and Amir Speed are likely to see increased roles in the absence of Jonathan Jones, Jack Jones, and Marcus Jones.
Marcus Jones

NE Defensive Back #25

Patriots placed CB Marcus Jones on injured reserve with a torn labrum.

It means the defensive depth piece/randomly-deployed offensive weapon must miss at least the next four games. In reality, it is probably a season-ending injury. It further thins a New England secondary already hit hard by injury.
Will Grier

NE Quarterback #7

Patriots signed QB Will Grier.

The quarterback is being plucked off the Bengals’ practice squad, leaving Cincinnati without a No. 2 quarterback for Monday evening against the Rams should Joe Burrow (calf) be sidelined. It is perhaps a sign Burrow will go. A cynic might note New England’s signing coincides with facing Grier’s ex-team the Cowboys in 10 days.
DeVante Parker

NE Wide Receiver #1

DeVante Parker (knee) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

Parker was limited in practice last Friday and suited up on Sunday, so this limited session is likely ongoing maintenance. The veteran boundary receiver returned to a full-time role in Week 2 and totaled six catches for 57 yards. He enters Week 3 sitting in the WR5 ranks versus the Jets.
Trent Brown

NE Tackle #77

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Patriots OT Trent Brown agreed to an “improved contract.”

The Patriots added $2 million worth of incentives to Brown’s contract for the season. His deal is now worth up to $13 million total and he is still set to enter free agency after this season. Brown is New England’s left tackle and missed Week 2 against the Dolphins. The Patriots likely hope that the new contract will incentivize Brown to stay past this season.
Ezekiel Elliott

NE Running Back #15

Ezekiel Elliott rushed five times for 13 yards in the Patriots’ Week 2 loss to the Dolphins.

Elliott was out-touched 18 to five by lead back Rhamondre Stevenson after seeing 14 running back opportunities in Week 1 (seven carries and seven targets). Both games saw the Patriots playing from behind in the second half, meaning the Zeke experiment in New England could be short-lived.
Kendrick Bourne

NE Wide Receiver #84

Kendrick Bourne caught 4-of-9 targets for 29 yards in the Patriots’ Week 2 loss to the Dolphins.

Bourne couldn’t replicate his two-touchdown performance from Week 1 but managed to lead the team in targets for the second consecutive week. He appears set to provide immense value at his modest preseason ADP to fantasy managers that secured his services late in drafts. If he somehow remains on your waiver wire, now would be a good time to scoop him up.
Hunter Henry

NE Tight End #85

Hunter Henry caught 6-of-7 targets for 52 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots’ Week 2 loss to the Dolphins.

Henry found the end zone for the second time in as many games Sunday, hooking up with Mac Jones on a designed chip-and-go route from six yards out in the fourth quarter. Henry appears to be a valuable piece to offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien’s scheme particularly in the red zone, which should provide continued fantasy utility in what has become an offense not afraid to open things up through the air when trailing.
DeVante Parker

NE Wide Receiver #1

DeVante Parker caught 6-of-8 targets for 57 yards in the Patriots’ Week 2 loss to the Dolphins.

Mac Jones’ lone interception came on a back shoulder fade directed at Parker, but the veteran wide receiver mostly was a reliable target on the night. Parker is never going to be the most explosive pass-catcher but his consistency and ability to block have kept him on the field in two-wide sets for the Patriots to begin the season. Not the flashiest tool in the shed, but one that can provide end-of-roster utility in the right matchups.
