FOXBORO -- With Kendrick Bourne not on the field, Tyquan Thornton and K.J. Osborn were the Patriots’ top receivers, with DeMario Douglas in three-receiver sets. Thornton was the primary X receiver, and Osborn served as the Z/slot in base groupings. Thornton, often seen as fighting for a roster spot, showed potential if he can stay healthy and adapt to coaching. Boutte stood out with a diving catch from Maye and received praise from assistant coach Tiquan Underwood but struggled with consistency. JuJu Smith-Schuster reported being 100% after being 60% in 2023, though heavy rotation across positions suggests it’s too early to draw conclusions.
