Five grabs in huge Week 1 win
Burden caught all five of his targets for 63 yards and added two yards on his only carry in Sunday's 59-37 win over the Panthers.
In the highest-scoring Week 1 game in NFL history, Burden didn't make a huge impact but did the most he could with the targets he got. The Bears' running game was the engine of the offense in this one -- six of their eight TDs came on the ground -- and that balance will tip toward the pass-catchers sooner or later. Burden will look for more volume in Week 2 at home against the Vikings.
