New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte<\/a> will show up for mandatory minicamp despite rumors that he’s looking for a new home, he told CBS Boston’s Dan Roche<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Boutte is fresh off skipping voluntary practices for the first time in four offseasons. He’s heading into a contract year but appears destined for a reduced role, with the Patriots integrating impact acquisitions A.J. Brown<\/a> and Romeo Doubs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I try not to buy into it,” Boutte said of the trade winds. “At the end of the day, I can control what I can control. As long as I do what I’m supposed to do off the field, everything else will play out.”<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Boutte posted 33 receptions for 551 yards and six touchdowns last season, flashing big-play abilities on the perimeter. The former sixth-round pick has carved out a healthy role in New England over the last two seasons but is now firmly behind Brown, Doubs, and DeMario Douglas<\/a> on the depth chart.<\/p>\n

The Patriots moved up their mandatory minicamp, with workouts set to begin Tuesday.<\/p>\n
