Who Should I Start? Amon-Ra St. Brown or Luther Burden III

Saturday, October 3, 6:18 AM

Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III is well positioned for another productive outing as his team squares off with the visiting New York Jets in Week 4. The University of Missouri product posted strong numbers in last Monday's 27-7 win over the Eagles. Fellow wideout Kalif Raymond led the team with 90 receiving yards on the back of a 41-yard catch-and-run that cashed in for six, but Burden captained the way with seven catches on 11 targets. In fact, the 22-year-old leads Chicago in looks over his last two appearances and has been heavily involved, though he placed third (86) in snaps behind Raymond (100) and Rome Odunze (123) over that time frame. Even if Raymond edges out Burden in two-wide-receiver sets, Burden still appears to be a key cog in Chicago's aerial attack. New York isn't an easy opponent, but Burden looks to be over a preseason groin injury and has retained the elevated role he boasted to close out the 2025 campaign. Fantasy managers can roll the second-year pass catcher out as RotoBaller's PPR WR29 for his matchup with the Jets.
