  • Catches 22 passes as a rookie

    Thornton finished the 2022 season with 22 catches on 45 targets for 247 yards and two TDs in 13 games.

    Analysis: In his rookie campaign, the 2022 second-rounder was a complementary piece in a New England wideout corps that also included Jakobi Meyers, DeVante Parker, Kendrick Bourne and Nelson Agholor. Looking ahead, Parker, Bourne and Thornton remain under contract with the team next season, with reinforcements slated to arrive via free agency and the draft. Thornton's fantasy prospects in 2023 hinge on him seeing increased volume, which is a plausible outcome for the speedster out of Baylor pending the…read more

  • Productive day in win

    Thornton brought in three of seven targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots' 23-21 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

    Analysis: The rookie speedster was the somewhat surprising leader in receiving yards and checked in second in targets for the Patriots on the afternoon. Thornton's touchdown grab came just past the midway point of the first quarter on a seven-yard catch, only the second score of his first pro season. Thornton's receiving yardage tally was also a career high, and he could once again play an important role in a critical Week 18 road battle versus the Bills.

  • Active versus Dolphins

    Thornton (knee) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Given that DeVante Parker (concussion) remains out this week, Thornton should continue to see added snaps versus Miami, but with an 18/174/1 stat line on 36 targets through 11 games overall, the 2022 second-rounder isn't a high-percentage fantasy lineup option in Week 17.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Thornton (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins after practicing in a limited fashion this week, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Analysis: Given that DeVante Parker (concussion) remains out this week, Thornton should continue to see added snaps versus Miami, but with an 18/174/1 stat line on 36 targets through 11 games overall, the 2022 second-rounder isn't a high-percentage fantasy option in Week 17.

  • Logs limited practice

    Thornton (knee) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: While being listed as questionable ahead of this past Saturday's loss to the Bengals, Thornton suited up and logged 52 of 56 snaps on offense and finished with one catch for eight yards on three targets. With no reported setbacks coming out of that contest, Thornton's listed limitations Wednesday could well be maintenance-related. Either way, with an 18-174-1 receiving line on 36 targets through his first 11 career games, the rookie wideout is off the radar in most fantasy leagues.

  • Catches one pass versus Bengals

    Thornton was on the field for 52 of a possible 56 snaps on offense in Saturday's 22-18 loss to the Bengals en route to catching one of his three targets for eight yards in the contest, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Despite seeing added snaps of late with DeVante Parker (concussion) sidelined, Thornton has posted back-to-back one-catch efforts. Heading into the Patriots' last two regular-season contests, the 2022 second-rounder remains off the fantasy radar in all but the deepest of formats.

  • Suits up versus Bengals

    Thornton (knee) is listed as active for Saturday's game against the Bengals.

    Analysis: With DeVante Parker (concussion) inactive, Thornton should continue to see added snaps Saturday, but with a 17/166/1 stat line on 33 targets through 10 games overall, the 2022 second-rounder remains a speculative fantasy lineup option in Week 16.

  • Questionable to face Bengals

    Thornton (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bengals after practicing in a limited fashion Wednesday and Thursday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Analysis: If active Saturday, Thornton could see added Week 16 snaps with DeVante Parker (concussion) still out. However, having logged a total of 17 catches for 166 yards and a TD on 33 targets through 10 games overall, the 2022 second-rounder remains a speculative fantasy lineup option as the Patriots' stretch run approaches.

  • Added to injury report

    Thornton was a limited participant at practice Wednesday due to a knee issue.

    Analysis: Thornton wasn't listed on Tuesday's estimated practice report, so his limitations Wednesday are worth noting. The Patriots' final injury report of the week will be issued Thursday and will reveal whether or not the rookie wideout approaches Saturday's game against the Bengals with an injury designation.

  • Catches one pass Sunday

    Thornton logged 60 of a possible 65 snaps on offense en route to catching one of his four targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Raiders, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Thornton saw added work Week 15 with DeVante Parker (concussion) out, but with QB Mac Jones throwing for just 112 yards, the 2022 second-rounder -- who caught four passes Week 14 -- didn't yield much production from a fantasy perspective. With 17 catches for 166 yards and a TD on 33 targets in 10 games, Thornton is off the lineup radar in all but the deepest of formats.

  • Four catches versus Cardinals

    Thornton, who was on the field for 52 of a possible 59 snaps on offense in Monday's 27-13 win over the Cardinals, caught four of his five targets for 28 yards in the contest.

    Analysis: Thornton saw an uptick in snaps with Jakobi Meyers (concussion) inactive and DeVante Parker (head) limited to just six snaps in the contest. If one or both of his fellow WRs are cleared to play this coming Sunday against the Raiders, the rookie wideout will profile as a risky Week 15 fantasy option.

  • Catches two passes in Week 13

    Thornton caught two of his three targets for 31 yards in Thursday's 24-10 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: The rookie wideout was on the field for 21 of a possible 54 snaps on offense in the contest, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. With 12 catches on 24 targets for 117 yards and a TD in eight games to date, the 2022 second-rounder isn't seeing steady enough volume at this stage to merit fantasy attention in all but the deepest of formats.

  • Not targeted against Vikings

    Thornton went without a target in Thursday's 33-26 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: Even though he technically started Thursday, Thornton saw his role slip Week 12 while veterans Nelson Agholor and Kendrick Bourne took on more work. As a result, Thornton was limited to just 20 snaps on Thanksgiving Day and failed to see a target for the first time in any of his seven games this season.

  • Catches one pass Sunday

    Thornton logged 17 of a possible 63 snaps on offense in Sunday's 10-3 win over the Jets, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Thornton's Week 11 snap count represented a season low, and for the fourth consecutive game, the 2022 second-rounder caught just one pass (on two targets) for five yards. Until steady volume heads his way, Thornton is off the fantasy radar while working in a New England wideout corps that also includes Jakobi Meyers, DeVante Parker, Kendrick Bourne and Nelson Agholor.

  • One catch in Week 9

    Thornton logged 42 of a possible 63 snaps on offense in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Colts en route to catching one of his four targets for five yards, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Since scoring two TDs in Week 6 against the Browns, Thornton has caught one pass in each of his last three games. The 2022 second-rounder is off the fantasy radar for now, with Jakobi Meyers being the only New England wide receiver producing consistently enough to merit weekly lineup consideration.

  • Logs 61 snaps in Week 8

    Thornton, who was on the field for 61 of a possible 78 snaps on offense in Sunday's 22-17 win over the Jets, caught one of his two targets in the contest for 13 yards, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Thornton's season-high playing time total was the result of DeVante Parker (knee) being forced out of Sunday's contest after one snap. With Parker potentially being unavailable for the Patriots' Week 9 contest against the Colts, Thornton could continue to see added work this coming weekend, but until the rookie wideout sees steady volume he'll be a speculative fantasy lineup option.

  • Catches one pass Monday

    Thornton was on the field for 44 of a possible 52 snaps on offense in Monday's loss to the Bears, catching one of five targets for 19 yards, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Though Nelson Agholor was back in the mix after missing a game due to a hamstring injury, he saw only three snaps as Thornton worked as the Patriots' No. 3 WR behind Jakobi Meyers and DeVante Parker. As the speedy rookie's two-TD effort in Week 6 suggests, Thornton has some playmaking upside, but in his current role he profiles as a hit-or-miss fantasy option.

  • Scores two TDs in Week 6

    Thornton, who was on the field for 40 of a possible 70 snaps on offense in Sunday's 38-15 win over the Browns, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, caught four of his five targets for 37 yards with a TD and carried three times for 16 yards and a rushing score in the contest.

    Analysis: Thornton saw an expanded role Week 6 alongside Jakobi Meyers and DeVante Parker, with Nelson Agholor (hamstring) inactive and Kendrick Bourne limited to four snaps due to a toe injury. The 2022 second-rounder's volume and fantasy upside Week 7 versus the Bears likely hinges on the availability of Agholor and Bourne, but in any case Thornton's speed gives him the potential to make plays in the coming weeks, thus making him a sleeper candidate in deeper formats.

  • Catches two passes in debut

    In his regular season debut, Thornton was on the field for 25 of possible 60 snaps on offense in Sunday's 29-0 win over the Lions en route to catching two of his three targets for seven yards, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 2022 second-rounder missed New England's first four games due to a collarbone injury, but now that he's back in the mix, Thornton brings added speed to New England's pass-catching corps. However, with Jakobi Meyers, DeVante Parker, Nelson Agholor (hamstring) and Kendrick Bourne also in the team's WR mix, Thornton currently doesn't have a steady path to targets.

  • Off injured reserve

    Thornton (collarbone) was activated off injured reserve Saturday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Thornton was designated to return off injured reserve earlier this week, but it's still a bit surprising to see the rookie receiver officially rejoin the active roster so soon. The 2022 second-round pick put together a dynamic training camp prior to the injury, but don't expect Thornton to be a major contributor right away, especially if rookie QB Bailey Zappe continues to fill in for the injured Mac Jones (ankle).

  • Cleared to practice

    The Patriots designated Thornton (collarbone) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The transaction opens a 21-day window for the rookie to practice with the team before New England would have to add him to the active roster or keep him on IR for the remainder of the season. He can return as soon as Sunday's game against the Lions if he's deemed healthy, but Thornton likely will start off in a part-time role when he first joins the New England offense.

  • Placed on IR

    The Patriots have placed Thornton (collarbone) on injured reserve, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

    Analysis: Thornton, who is bouncing back from a procedure to repair a fractured clavicle that he suffered on Aug. 19, thus is slated to miss at least the first four games of the coming season, with the report suggesting that the wideout's initial recovery estimate called for a potential return to action in mid-to-late October. Once Thornton gets back into the mix, he'll add speed and depth to a New England WR corps currently headed by DeVante Parker, Jakobi Meyers, Kendrick Bourne and Nelson Agholor.

  • Undergoes procedure on clavicle

    Thornton underwent surgery this past Monday to repair a fractured clavicle, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The report notes that Thornton's recovery period should be in the 6-to-8 week range, which sets the stage for the 2022 second-rounder to miss time out of the gate this season. Once he returns to action, the speedy rookie will look to carve out a role in a New England wideout corps that also currently includes DeVante Parker, Jakobi Meyers, Kendrick Bourne and Nelson Agholor.

  • Likely out around eight weeks

    Thornton (collarbone) is expected to miss around eight weeks, Michael Giardi of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Thornton fractured his collarbone during Friday's preseason game against Carolina and now appears likely to miss a good chunk of the regular season. While he wasn't headed for a starting job, the second-round pick reportedly had a nice training camp and was at least in the mix for snaps off the bench before this injury.

  • Diagnosed with collarbone injury

    Thornton was diagnosed with a collarbone injury after leaving Friday's preseason game against Carolina, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: It sounds like Thornton is expected to be out for a while, though perhaps not the entire season. The rookie second-round pick was expected to start his career in a depth role.

  • Picks up shoulder injury

    Thornton won't return to Friday's preseason game against the Panthers due to a shoulder injury.

    Analysis: Prior to getting ruled out in the fourth quarter, Thornton hauled in his only target for 13 yards. The severity of the injury is unknown, but his status now bears watching with just one exhibition left on the Patriots' schedule next Friday at Las Vegas.

  • Finds end zone in preseason opener

    Thornton caught both of his targets for nine yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 23-21 preseason loss to the Giants.

    Analysis: Thornton capped the first quarter with a two-yard touchdown catch to get the Patriots on the board, putting an exclamation point on his NFL debut. The rookie second-round pick out of Baylor was drafted to stretch the field in the methodical New England offense, but Thornton could carve out a more prominent role if he proves to be an effective option in the red zone, and Thursday's touchdown should help in that regard. Thornton will look to build on this promising debut when the Patriots host…read more

  • Looks good in training camp

    Thornton, who has seen a portion of first-team reps in training camp, "looks like a player on the rise," according to Zack Cox of NESN.com.

    Analysis: The Patriots traded up in April in order to select Thornton in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 50th overall. Though the speedster is competing for targets with experienced pros DeVante Parker, Jakobi Meyers, Kendrick Bourne and Nelson Agholor, the 6-foot-2, 182-pound Baylor product is a player to watch if he's able to parlay his 4.28 speed into a a field-stretching role in the team's offense. Steady volume may not be immediate for Thornton as a rookie, but if injuries end up thinning…read more
