With 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.
