Meanwhile your #5 WR needs to play special teams, and Charlie Jones got return work in Week 3 with a 48 yard kick return. Even offensively in the first half of Week 3 Charlie Jones had 3 receiving yards to Burton's 0 and Burton did all his damage against the Colt's 3rd string defense in the 2nd half. I think Burton is more at risk of being inactive on gameday than being our #3.
I'm sure it's already been mentioned somewhere, but I read that he's been sleeping in meetings. Hence, why he hasn't been getting on the field earlier. Supposedly, that was a point of conversation with Herbstreit and the announcers. Super talented but needs to mature. High bust potential, unfortunately.
