Luther Burden lands on list revealing when his full potential will be tapped into
Luther Burden has shown flashes, but when his full potential is unveiled suddenly feels obvious.
Michael Reaves/GettyImagesWith so many mouths to feed in the Chicago Bears' offense, Luther Burden's path to significant impact as a rookie this season was always going to be difficult. But in time, head coach Ben Johnson paid off his promise to get the second-round rookie more involved.
If not for an ankle injury, which will sideline him for Week 16 against the Green Bay Packers, Burden was on track for the second 100-yard game of his career in Week 15 against the Cleveland Browns. As it was, he finished with six catches (on seven targets) for 84 yards, despite playing just 26 snaps.
