Luther Burden III's Role Expected to Grow in Week 3
Luther Burden III has had a quiet start to his NFL career, totaling just two catches for two yards through his first two games. With a limited offensive role, head coach Ben Johnson noted the team needs to design a package of plays specifically for the rookie. The second-round pick has played only 22% of snaps so far this season, as Rome Odunze, D.J. Moore, and Olamide Zaccheaus dominate the starting roles. A potential opportunity arises this week with the Dallas Cowboys in town, a defense that has struggled mightily in 2025, allowing the most points, yards, and receiving yards in the league so far. While Burden isn't yet fantasy relevant, producing efficiently with his limited workload could help him grow his fantasy value moving forward.
