Earlier this week we speculated with the rest of the press where Michael Burton might land after news that former Rutgers fullback Michael Burton had been placed on waivers by the Detroit Lions.
The Chicago Bears, 3rd in line to decide if they were willing to make the waiver pickup, pulled the trigger on their division rival. So fast, that all the teams OTB speculated didn’t even have a chance to land the former Scarlet Knights lead blocker and Burton himself hasn’t even updated his twitter page yet. He will surely be happy though at his football camp June 17 to talk about this along with the fight against pediatric cancer.
