The market clearly spoke with this return, and how long Boutte was available (months). Teams didn’t want him.
But on top a blah return that doesn’t solve any issues, why now? If you’re gonna deal him to a contender, why not wait until the trade deadline hoping for a better offer? It makes no sense.
@andrewcallahan.bsky.socialKayshon Boutte to Houston for S Jaylen Reed and a pick, per @tompelissero.bsky.social. I never thought Boutte would stay, but I’m stunned the Patriots dealt him to a contender.
Reed was a 2025 6th-rounder. 14 tackles in 7 regular-season games. He started 2 playoff games. Eliot Wolf speaks tomorrow.
