Burden's 28% target rate needed to sustain value; route share declining late.
Played 54% of snaps and ran 67% of routes for the Bears, posting 6 targets for 63 yards. Burden was part of the Burden/Loveland/Odunze trio that accounted for 22 of Chicago's 31 targets. However, Burden lost some route share relative to Week 3, getting just 39% of snaps in the fourth quarter (compared to 60% through three quarters). The source notes Ben Johnson doesn't want to use Burden as a 90% route share guy, so he'll need to keep the target rate above 25% for mainstream fantasy value (currently at 28%).
