Positive signalProjection

Burden's elite single-high metrics and target share support WR1 upside.

Burden is WR29 in fantasy points per game with one week inside the top 15 (WR13). He has a 20.3% target share, 1.91 YPRR, eight red zone targets, two deep targets, and 25.2% first-read share. This week against Atlanta's 64% single high rate, Burden has led the way with a 30% target per route run rate and 2.40 YPRR against single high. Burden should lead the passing attack this week. While Atlanta has held slot receivers to the 4th-fewest yards per target and 2nd-fewest fantasy points per opportunity, Burden can overcome a tough matchup if Ben Johnson runs the passing attack through him.
