Luther Burden: Eight catches for 95 yards in Week 6 win

The Bears wide receiver secured all eight of his targets for 95 yards in a 31-23 win over the Falcons.

By Cole Hartwell

Luther Burden caught all eight of his targets for 95 yards in the Bears’ 31-23 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

What happened

Burden secured every one of his eight targets. He finished with 95 receiving yards.

Context

Through the first five games of the season, Burden had 23 receptions on 35 targets for 266 yards and one touchdown, totaling 55.8 PPR points. His Week 5 performance included four catches for 47 yards on six targets.

Depth chart

Burden sits atop the Bears’ wide receiver depth chart as RWR1. Rome Odunze is listed behind him at LWR2 with 17 receptions for 273 yards and 42.3 PPR points this season. Kalif Raymond has 24 catches for 226 yards and one touchdown.

What’s next

The Bears’ Week 6 game at the Atlanta Falcons was already played.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Burden’s eight catches for 95 yards show a strong connection with his quarterback. Managers should consider him a high-floor WR3 with upside in PPR leagues going forward. Odunze and Raymond would be the next receivers to step up if Burden were to miss time or see fewer targets.
