Burden is WR24 on WR7 usage; inconsistent role limits ceiling despite upside.

Burden played only three of 21 snaps in heavy personnel; when the Bears established a lead, they went away from 3-WR sets, explaining massive splits between halves. He's the WR3 in yards per route in the first half and WR61 in the second half. When Caleb Johnson hasn't isolated him on a first read, results are worse. Burden is the WR24 on WR7 usage in games with Caleb this year, making him an upside WR2/3 despite obvious inconsistency. Projected for 65.5 receiving yards vs. TB in Week 9.
