From the episode

Luther burden was the top target getter...The dude is a dog. I mean, he is, he's really, really good with the ball in his hands. You know, he's great after the catch. And the weird thing to me is that like in week three, especially those are the two guys who ate in that game where Kalief Raymond and Luther burden.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Burden is a top target in Bears offense with elite after-catch skills.

Burden was the top target-getter for the Bears last year and remains a key beneficiary of Ben Johnson's play-calling in week three, where he and Raymond were the two receivers who 'ate' in the game. Burden's profile includes excellent after-the-catch ability and ball security; he's a dog with the ball in his hands and fits Johnson's scheme of getting receivers open on crossers and in space.
