Patriots Re-Signing WR Kendrick Bourne To Three-Year Deal Worth Up To $33M

According to Andrew Callahan, the base value of the contract is $19.5 million. 

Bourne is coming off of a torn ACL, but this is a pretty solid contract for him all things considered. 

Bourne, 28, signed with the 49ers as an undrafted free agent out of Eastern Washington in 2017. He signed a three-year, $1.66 million deal and made the final roster each of his first three seasons in the league. 

The 49ers placed a second-round tender on Bourne as a restricted free agent at $3.27 million for the 2020 season.

Bourne then became an unrestricted free agent in 2021 before signing a three-year, $22.5 million contract with the Patriots. He finished out the final year of that deal and made $5.5 million in 2023. 

He was placed on injured reserve by New England at the end of October with a knee injury.

In 2023, Bourne appeared in eight games for the Patriots and caught 37 passes for 406 yards and four touchdowns.
