Burden Rising: Bears’ New WR Star | Chicago Bears News

Luther Burden is poised to take center stage for the Chicago Bears this season, stepping into D.J. Moore’s vacated role with big expectations—and a coach who already sees him as a future star. Offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, who once coached Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jarvis Landry, compares Burden to those elite receivers—praising his fierce competitiveness, work ethic, and readiness to seize the spotlight. Though Burden was a part-time starter last year, he made an impact with 47 catches for 652 yards and 2 TDs, and his offseason dedication has only sharpened his focus. With Moore’s 85 targets now up for grabs, Burden is primed for a breakout season—and fans should expect to see number 10 everywhere on the field.
