Luther Burden III Headshot

Bears WR Luther Burden returned to a "short, light" practice on Wednesday, according to The Chicago Tribune's Sean Hammond. It sounds like Burden would have been listed as "limited" if this was the regular season, but it's another positive step in his return from an August 8 groin injury.

Burden is 18 days removed from the groin injury and still has another 18 days before Chicago's opener vs. Carolina. Barring a setback, Burden should be good to go for that one.

His ADP has dropped nearly a full round since his injury. Burden checks in as a positive value at his early-fifth-round price tag, according to our ADP Market Index.
