Former Patriots WR Admits Regret After Leaving New England: “Wish I Could’ve Played With That Kid One Season”
November 16, 2025 After witnessing the explosive rise of Drake Maye with the New England Patriots, the former wide receiver who amassed nearly 4,000 receiving yards in his NFL career could not hide his regret—and blurted out: “Wish I could’ve played with that kid one season.” The player had requested a contract release from the Patriots on August 27, 2025, just one day after being named to the official 53-man roster. According to sources, the team granted the request after a trade with the Minnesota Vikings fell through. Prior to that, New England had proposed a pay cut, which he refused. He then returned to sign with the San Francisco 49ers, where he began his NFL career. During his time in a Patriots uniform from 2021 to 2025, Kendrick Bourne recorded approximately 292 receptions, accumulated 3,714 yards, and scored 22 touchdowns. Those numbers only deepen his sorrow as he watches Maye progress at an extraordinary pace. Bourne, according to several sources, has publicly backed Maye for the MVP award, showing fierce belief in the young quarterback’s talent. On one of Maye’s social media posts, Bourne left a simple yet deeply emotional comment: “MVP.” It was not just praise—it was a powerful affirmation. Bourne believes Maye deserves the NFL’s highest individual honor. Watching Maye lead the team with steady and explosive performances, the feeling of regret becomes even clearer. “If I could do it over, I wish I had stayed in New England—just one season to play alongside him. Seeing Drake Maye shine in every game makes me regret every moment I left too soon. Just one season, I wanted to enjoy every play with him,” Bourne shared in a conversation filled with wistful longing. His words seem to touch the hearts of Patriots fans: “We miss Bourne—and hope one day to see them together on the field again.” The former WR’s longing is not merely personal regret; it is also proof of the immense potential Maye is displaying. With Bourne watching from afar yet still following closely, the story between the Patriots’ past and present carries deep emotion—a chapter of reflection on what was and hope for the team’s future.
