2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bourne, who suffered a torn right ACL in Week 8 of the 2023 season, began the 2024 campaign on the PUP list before being activated ahead of Week 5 action. Upon his return to the mix, the 29-year-old finished tallied 28 catches (on 38 targets) for 305 yards and a TD in 12 contests. Bourne is under contract with New the Patriots through 2026, but his role in the team's revamped wideout corps, with all of Kyle Williams, Mack Hollins, Kayshon Boutte, Ja'Lynn Polk, Javon Baker and Efton Chism also competing for targets that don't go to Stefon Diggs and DeMario Douglas.

RANKS
Signed a one-year, $1.77 million contract with the 49ers in September of 2025.
Re-emerges in slot role
Bourne had two receptions on three targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 37-24 win over the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Bourne jumped back up to third on San Francisco's receiver depth chart while logging 33 snaps on offense (45 percent) Sunday. The 29-year-old also nabbed his first reception since Week 10 after seemingly falling out of favor midseason. If Bourne continues to operate as the 49ers' third receiver down the stretch, then desperate fantasy managers in deeper formats could take a look at the veteran against the Colts next Monday. Especially if starter Ricky Pearsall (ankle/knee) is limited by a couple of minor injuries that cropped up in Week 15's win.

Bourne re-signed with New England as a free agent this spring, deciding to stick around under a new coaching staff. During his seven-year career, Bourne played his best football with the Patriots over the last three season. In 2021, he had 925 yards from scrimmage and five touchdowns. After a down year in 2022, Bourne came back strong last season with 406 yards and four touchdowns before suffering an ACL tear in Week 8. He'll now focus on rehab ahead of his age-29 season, hoping to regain a starting spot in a WR group that added veteran K.J. Osborn and rookies Ja'Lynn Polk and Javon Baker this offseason. The Patriots still lack a clear top target, but their WR depth looks a bit better than in Bourne's previous seasons, potentially leaving him with less volume even if he makes it back for Week 1 and claims a top-three role in an offense that will have either Drake Maye or Jacoby Brissett under center.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Hovering at yardage bonus
Bourne sits at 482 receiving yards through 12 regular-season games, and he would earn a $500,000 bonus if he were to finish the regular season with 500 receiving yards, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The problem facing Bourne is that he has seemingly been phased out of the 49ers' offensive game plan following the returns of George Kittle and Ricky Pearsall. Bourne has not recorded a catch since Week 10 against the Rams, and his back-to-back 142-yard performances in Weeks 5 and 6 seem like a distant memory. However, the veteran wide receiver will have four more games to hit that milestone and earn the bonus that comes with it.
