Foxborough – Kayshon Boutte has become a real weapon for the Patriots of New England, but the wide receiver was missing in combat during the victory of week 4 of the team against the Carolina Panthers.
However, when he asked him questions about Boutte, the offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels clearly indicated that he had no problem for the receiver. In addition, he made sure to emphasize that the lack of targets is not because they do not trust him.

“Kayshon, he does his job. I think it’s unique, and I think he was our leader receiver in week 1, then Rhamondre (Stevenson) in week 2, and Hunter (Henry) in week 3, and (Stefon) Diggs in week 4,” McDaniels told journalists on Thursday. “It is a sign of our quarter who launches him to who is supposed to obtain it according to the coverage and the way they play us and what the good match is. I know that these guys do all their work and each skill player wants to have the ball as much as they can help the team, first of all, and then perform themselves. And they should want.
“Sometimes the coverage dictates where it does not go, but I have no doubt that the opportunities find all these guys.”
For Boutte, he did not hide from the fact that he wants the ball. It’s in his blood. But at the same time, it is the final result that really counts.
“In the end, for the receivers, we want the ball. I think it is really the competitor in us,” he told Patriots Wire. “Sometimes it can be frustrating, but at the end of the day, everyone gets the ball, everyone eats. And as long as we win too, I think it’s great.”

“You never know when your name will be called, but just at the time, play the game,” he added.
And with that, he also benefits from each opportunity of the week, ensuring that he remains locked up.
“I think everything really comes back during the week, doing everything, even knowing the little details, you could spoil something from time to time,” said Boutte. “But I would just say, just showing the coaches that even when you don’t get the ball, you always do everything correctly.”
