Burden's snap increase with Moore gone sets up WR1 breakout potential in 2026.
Burden was a fantasy WR1 on a per-play basis as a rookie despite limited snaps; with DJ Moore out of the picture, he is all but guaranteed a major snap increase in 2026. His connection with Caleb Williams showed stark improvements in targeted passer rating and catchable target rate downfield compared to the QB's average, suggesting strong chemistry. As the young core grows in an already successful offense, his playmaking ability positions him as the first of many options. A groin injury in camp adds some risk but he should be available for Week 1.
