FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Follow-up tests Monday revealed that New England Patriots leading receiver Kendrick Bourne tore his right ACL, according to a source.

The injury ends Bourne's seventh season in the NFL, which was on pace to be his best, as he faces a recovery that a source estimates in the six- to eight-month range.

Bourne was injured on the first play of the fourth quarter in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins, when he caught a pass and was tackled along the right sideline by cornerback Eli Apple.

He remained down after the play, holding his right knee. Bourne entered Sunday rated 11th in the NFL in ESPN's new receiver tracking metrics and has totaled a team-high 37 receptions for 406 yards and four touchdowns through eight games.
