K.J. Osborn

Patriots agreed to terms with WR K.J. Osborn, formerly of the Vikings, on a one-year deal.

Originally a fifth round pick of the Vikings, Osborn didn’t play offensive snaps until his second season, operating as the Vikings’ No. 3 receiver for the past three seasons. He was targeted 75 times in 2023, finishing with 48 receptions for 540 yards and three touchdowns. Osborn can play on the outside and in the slot, now joining a Patriots team expected to add a rookie quarterback. He joins Kendrick Bourne, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and DeMario Douglas in a middling Pats receiving corps. Osborn projects to be a fantasy WR5 at best for 2024.
