New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte was arrested on charges of illegal betting during his time at LSU. Louisiana State Police Gaming Enforcement Division investigators claim Boutte, who was 20 at the time, placed bets on sporting events from April 6, 2022, to May 7, 2023, using a fake name to bypass the legal gambling age of 21 in Louisiana. Approximately 9,000 wagers were placed through the account, including six bets on LSU football games. Boutte faces charges of computer fraud and a misdemeanor count of gambling prohibited for individuals under 21. The Patriots acknowledge the allegations and note that Boutte is cooperating with the ongoing investigation, which may lead to additional charges.
