My theory:
Burrow cushioned his fall with his hand much lower than normal. Normal being up towards his head when hitting the ground. Clowney had a hold of his arms not allowing his arms to extend forward thus his wrist was closer to his waist with his forearm at more of a 90 degree angle at the wrist forcing all the weight straight down, versus if his hand was closer to his head the wrist would hit the ground at a much more open angle and not take all the weight.
