My /boot partition hit 100% and now I can't upgrade. Can't remove old kernels to make room

I have a brand new 10TB Western Digital My Book 25EE external hard drive, but it won't mount on my Ubuntu 16.04 at all. I keep getting the following error:
Error mounting /dev/sde1 at /media/u1666362/My Book: Command-line `mount -t "exfat" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1001,gid=1001,iocharset=utf8,namecase=0,errors=remount-ro,umask=0077" "/dev/sde1" "/media/u1666362/My Book"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: unknown filesystem type 'exfat''
I have tried installing exfat-utils
and exfat-fuse
as stated online, but the drive still is unable to mount and I get the same error message over and over. What's worse is that I have Ubuntu 16.04, so AFAIK it should already be there (fully functional) on my PC.
I'm fairly new to Ubuntu, so maybe I'm missing something?

@Katie do you see any mount related errors in /var/log/syslog after installing exfat-utils and exfat-fuse? Ideally a reboot should not be necessary, but you can try doing a reboot.
