Bourne is penciled in as the Cardinals' slot receiver and is expected to live out his two-year, $10 million contract (up to $12 million with incentives). GM Monti Ossenfort went after him hard during free agency to elevate the slot position after previous struggles with Xavier Weaver, Zay Jones, and Greg Dortch. Bourne has played nine years with twice over 70 targets in a season, possesses reliable hands, strong route-running burst, and versatility to play inside or outside. He is a physical receiver who will fight for contested balls, though not a burner. Ossenfort is counting on him to become the third chess piece in the receiver room.

Kendrick Bourne was signed during free agency from the San Francisco 49ers to be the Cardinals' slot receiver starter. The source expects Bourne to provide good hands in the slot position and get looks in the short game within the new short-to-intermediate passing scheme. While he did not break 1,000 yards last season, the source projects he should increase production this year. The worst-case scenario is that he cannot generate production in the short game, but the base case is positive.
