From the article

Burden is the WR23 on WR11 usage over the last month of the season, largely with backup QBs. When he's on the field, the ball does go his way often, so he doesn't have to be a full-time player to be an upside WR2/3 in fantasy. A 23% target share over the past month is enough to start.

Burden's 23% target share and clean Patriots matchup support WR2/3 upside.

Burden is an explosive player with size to be a red-zone factor, though the Bears are keeping him sidelined often when they use heavy personnel. He is the WR23 on WR11 usage over the last month of the season, largely with backup QBs, but in his last five games with Caleb Williams, he's the WR60 on WR34 usage. When on the field, the ball goes his way often, so he doesn't have to be a full-time player to be an upside WR2/3 in fantasy. A 23% target share over the past month is enough to start. New England ranks 18th against fantasy WRs, allowing 25.8 half PPR points per game, with opposing slot and intermediate targets finding regular production against the Patriots. The Bears carry a 26.75-point implied team total (third) as 3-point home favorites, and Luther's matchup is amongst the cleanest.
