Patriots' Kayshon Boutte hasn't 'really thought about' if his one-handed catch vs. Texas was his best ever

"Boutte declined to say whether the catch was the greatest of his football career or not, telling reporters on Thursday he'll ponder that sometime down the road. "I don't know, I never really thought about it," Boutte said when asked if that's the best catch he's ever made. "I'll think back on it when the job complete.""

"Boutte made the grab a couple of minutes into the fourth quarter, diving for a ball Drake Maye threw to him before tapping it up to himself with one hand as he beat All-Pro cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. for the score. The 32-yard touchdown grab extended the Patriots' lead to 28-16 with 12:58 remaining, giving them a much-needed score to put the game out of reach."

"The grab sent Gillette Stadium into an instant frenzy. In fact, on the Patriots' sideline, Rhamondre Stevenson was excited to tell fellow running back TreVeyon Henderson that Boutte made a similar catch for Maye's first touchdown pass in 2024. Boutte's catch also became a viral sensation in the days after the game thanks to a clip shared by NFL Films. The clip perfectly tracks the ball from when Maye threw it to when Boutte secured the grab as it made its way through the snow in Foxborough."

Kayshon Boutte declined to label his one-handed, 32-yard touchdown grab against the Texans as the best catch of his career, saying he will reflect on it after accomplishing his goals. The catch occurred early in the fourth quarter when Boutte dove for a Drake Maye pass, secured it one-handed, and beat All-Pro cornerback Derek Stingley Jr., extending the Patriots' lead to 28-16. The play energized Gillette Stadium and teammates on the sideline. A viral NFL Films clip tracked the ball through falling snow as Boutte secured the catch, boosting attention after the game.
