Ranked in the 'shaky flex' category for Week 1 with significant uncertainty about his role and route distribution. The speaker expresses hesitation about committing to Burks, wanting to see how route percentage shakes out between him, Calvin Ridley, and Jalen Robinson before deciding, and specifically wants to confirm whether Burks will be a full-time player. While the speaker would start Burks over some other options, the overall tone reflects concern about his snap count and target share clarity heading into the season.

Veteran receiver Treylon Burks is on the Commanders 53-man roster but is likely to be a game-day inactive given the special teams value of McCaffrey and Lane; if active, he could serve as a big-bodied target option depending on matchups.

Treylon Burks is competing with Dyami Brown for the No. 6 receiver spot on the Commanders; keeping seven doesn't seem likely, which could make one of them a trade target. Burks is a big-play option who provides injury protection and a big-body in the pattern, making him a potential trade candidate despite roster bubble status.

Burks is a big-play option who provides injury protection and a big-body in the pattern, but faces roster bubble pressure in a deep receiver group after the Stefon Diggs signing.

Played all three snaps on opening drive and nine additional snaps afterward (12 total), without seeing a target. Jordyn Tyson notes Burks getting one more snap than Stefon Diggs on opening drive is interesting; Burks stayed on field in 12 personnel with TE John Bates replacing Diggs. Tyson says "There really is some chance that we see 40-plus snaps of Treylon Burks come Week 1. It probably won't amount to much in terms of targets/production, but it's still cool to see a draft bust get a second/third chance of sorts."

Burks is among the receivers making a strong case for themselves in a competitive depth chart behind anchors Stefon Diggs and Terry McLaurin. The Commanders have good depth at receiver, which is a positive problem to have heading into final 53-man roster cuts.

Commanders Film Review w/ Jayden (3 snaps): Stefon Diggs only lined up in the slot - when they went to a 2WR set, he came off the field If you are worried about Diggs - this would be the reason why Terry McLaurin (as expected) took all 3 snaps on the outside along with Treylon Burks (signaling he's a 3WR set starter, but that could be a rotation if they do move Diggs outside sometimes) Jacory Croskey-Merritt (came up gimpy in their last practice but should be fine) & Rachaad White missed the...
