I'm benching Luther Burden in a couple of leagues this week. Case Keenum is expected to start at QB for the Bears, and the Eagles are a tough matchup. It's also concerning that Burden had a 57% snap share in Week 2 and played four fewer snaps than Khalif Raymond. I have Burden ranked outside the top 40 at wide receiver this week.

Burden's declining snap share (57%) and tough matchup warrant benching.

The source is benching Burden in a couple of leagues this week. Case Keenum is expected to start at QB for the Bears, and the Eagles are a tough matchup. More concerning is that Burden had a 57% snap share in Week 2 and played four fewer snaps than Khalif Raymond, reminiscent of early last season when Burden was routinely getting out-snapped by Olamide Zaccheaus. While Burden was a rookie last year so the slow ramp-up made sense, the source expected a Burden breakout late last season, so the reduced snaps are puzzling. The source has Burden ranked outside the top 40 at wide receiver this week.
