"There hasn't been any word about the seriousness of what he's dealing with, leading many to believe it won't force him to miss time at the start of the regular season. And if that's proven accurate, there's a good chance he is their most desirable player to be traded ahead of Week 1, with one team looking like they might be particularly interested."
"The Vikings are dealing with their own receiver drama this offseason, along with some unfavorable injuries to top players like Justin Jefferson. He just returned to practice this week after missing much of training camp, which isn't a great situation to be in just weeks before the regular season begins. Making matters worse is Jordan Addison's suspension for the first three games of the season, making them a prime candidate to engage in a trade for Bourne, if the Patriots are dangling him on the market."
Kendrick Bourne has been absent from Patriots practice after suffering a training camp injury, but no word on its seriousness suggests he may be ready by Week 1. If healthy, Bourne could be the Patriots' most desirable trade candidate ahead of roster cutdowns. The Vikings face receiver issues, including Justin Jefferson's recent missed practice time and Jordan Addison's three-game suspension, creating need at the position. Minnesota reportedly inquired about Adam Thielen, but his age and Panthers tenure make Bourne a potentially better fit. The Vikings could pursue a trade for Bourne to bolster their receiving corps.
