Two catches against Miami Burden caught two of three targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 24-24 preseason tie against the Dolphins.
Impact Burden was reasonably productive considering he played only the first half and the Bears didn't dress starting quarterback Caleb Williams. Burden could open the regular season as Chicago's No. 3 wide receiver behind DJ Moore and Rome Odunze if the rookie second-round pick beats out Olamide Zaccheaus and Devin Duvernay. Chicago's next preseason game will be Aug. 17 against the Bills.

HIGHLIGHT: Luther Burden's first reception goes for 1st-down yardage Bears rookie receiver Luther Burden III makes his first catch of the 2025 NFL preseason, a 16-yard gain that results in a first down.

Expected to play Sunday Burden and fellow rookie Colston Loveland are both expected to play in Sunday's preseason opener against the Dolphins, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Impact Several of the Bears' offensive starters will be absent from Sunday's contest including Caleb Williams, D'Andre Swift, DJ Moore, Rome Odunze and Cole Kmet. Per Briggs, Burden figures to see plenty of reps in Chicago's preseason opener, and he'll operate as the WR1 with Moore and Odunze in street clothes.

Participating in team drills Burden (hamstring) is taking part in team drills at Tuesday's practice, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Impact Burden missed OTAs, minicamp, and the first four days of training camp due to a hamstring injury sustained during rookie minicamp back in May, but head coach Ben Johnson said the 39th overall pick is now being eased into team drills "slowly but surely," per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com. Johnson said Burden is "a little behind right now," but it at least appears that the rookie's soft-tissue health is no longer impeding his development. Burden still has plenty of time to display his playmaking abilities throughout training camp and the preseason, and to potentially push Olamide Zaccheaus for the No. 3 receiver role behind DJ Moore and Rome Odunze.

Suited up for practice Burden (hamstring) is dressed for practice Monday, Chris Emma of 670TheScore.com reports.
Impact It appears Burden will participate, at least in a limited capacity, after missing the first four practices of training camp. He hurt his hamstring not long after being drafted this spring, subsequently missing Chicago's OTA and minicamp practices. Burden may take most of his reps with backups for now, but there's plenty of time to ramp up and eventually challenge Olamide Zaccheaus for the No. 3 WR role.

Bears morning report: Ben Johnson gives injury updates, revisits booting 1st-team offense Rookie wide receiver Luther Burden III will miss another practice, and there's a new injury of concern in the rookie class.
JULY 24, 2025 • SUNTIMES.COM
Could be ready soon Bears coach Ben Johnson said Thursday that he hopes Burden (undisclosed) will be ready to practice in a few days, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Impact Burden's soft-tissue injury from the offseason program lingered longer than the Bears expected, but they apparently remain optimistic he'll be available for the start of training camp. Once he's declared healthy, the 39th overall pick figures to compete with Olamide Zaccheaus for the No. 3 WR spot, behind returning starters DJ Moore and Rome Odunze.
JULY 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Not practicing yet Burden (undisclosed) didn't participant Wednesday in the first practice of training camp, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The 39th overall pick avoided Chicago's pre-camp injury lists, suggesting he's expected to practice sooner than later. Burden missed OTA practices and June minicamp after suffering an unspecified soft-tissue injury in May. It's a poor start to his pro career, but he still has time to lock down the No. 3 WR job before Week 1, competing with Olamide Zaccheaus (and maybe Devin Duvernay or Tyler Scott).
