From the article

Against two high, Burden is second on the team with a 21% target-per-route run rate with only 0.79 YPRR. Last week, against two high, he had a 36% target per route run rate (led the team). I'm not worried about the small-sample inefficiency against two high, as he had 1.88 YPRR against two high last year with a 25% target-per-route run rate. Burden should have another busy game in Week 4 against a secondary that has ranked 15th in yards per target against slot receivers.

Burden should have another busy game in Week 4 against a Jets secondary that has the fifth-highest two-high rate (65.4%). Against two-high, Burden is second on the team with a 21% target-per-route run rate with only 0.79 YPRR, but last week against two-high he had a 36% target-per-route run rate (led the team). The source is not worried about the small-sample inefficiency against two-high, as he had 1.88 YPRR against two-high last year with a 25% target-per-route run rate. Buffalo is 15th in yards per target against slot receivers.
