In his 6th season, he has a career total of 592 yards and 5 TDs.


This is what I call a true PS player.  You play the guy all you want.

He showed last year he deserves to be elevated to the 53.
Does he deserve to get as many snaps as he has? Probably not, but the Bengals didn't exactly draft a guy who was really NFL-ready in Burton.
Burton can do certain things well, but we haven't really seen him do much other than a go route.
Dude needs to diversify his route tree and show he can do more than catch deep passes before the coaches will trust him with significant snaps.

And it doesn't matter anyway once Higgins is back.
Irwin will be back to the bench on offense and playing ST.
Burton will get occasional usage like he has these first 2 games.
