Burden's elite target share and efficiency support starting him despite Tampa's slot defense.

Since Caleb Williams' return, Luther Burden has been the WR8 in fantasy points per game with a 20.4% target share, 4.32 yards per route run, three red zone targets, a deep target, and a 28.6% first-read share. The limiting factor has been a 56% route share over that three-game span. Burden just shredded Seattle's secondary; the source notes he has the talent to overcome this week's matchup against Tampa Bay, which has allowed the ninth-fewest yards per target to slot receivers over the last five games while ranking 18th in fantasy points per opportunity.
