Burfict didn't line up much as the weak side backer this season. When he got back from his suspension Guenther moved Vigil to the weak side and had Burfict playing SAM. After Minter was injured it was Burfict rotating with V.Rey between Mike and Will with Vigil back at SAM (where he struggled). Then it just devolved in injury after injury...

Of course Burfict plays Mike in the nickle also.

Edit: Jordan Evans started at a different spot rhe last 3 games lol.
