Luther Burden Chicago Bears

Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Luther Burden has the potential to be a key figure of the offense. Burden has shown flashes of potential throughout the season but has played less in favor of veteran receiver Olamide Zaccheaus.

Zaccheaus struggled in Sunday’s 24-20 victory over the Giants. Zaccheaus had multiple key drops including a wide open touchdown. While the second-round draft pick caught all three of his targets for 51 yards. His last reception was a key first down reception that led to a Caleb Williams rushing touchdown to give the Bears the late fourth quarter lead, ultimately winning the game.

Many fans and media analysts have questioned why Zaccheaus is seeing the field over Burden. Burden has proved on multiple occasions that he should be involved more in the offense.

It looks like head coach Ben Johnson is starting to see that as well.

The Chicago Bears head coach had high praise for Luther Burden

During Monday’s media session, the Bears coach was asked about his rookie wide receiver. According to Adam Jahns of CHGO, Johnson gave immense praise to Burden and seemed to hint that he will be getting more snaps in the offense.

“He is very productive when he’s about to get the ball in his hands and there’s a strong argument that we should get it to him more”

Burden’s elite route running was shown on Sunday’s game. It seems that Burden could be developing more chemistry with quarterback Caleb Williams. The second-round rookie could be a major factor into Johnson’s offense. Burden could be a difference maker in both the slot and on the outside.

Hopefully we get to see more of Burden moving forward. The wide receiver has so much potential and can be a star for the Bears.
