The 2016 first-round choose began his profession with the Pittsburgh Steelers, then spent a few seasons with the Chicago Bears, and has been with the Seahawks for the reason that 2022 season. Whereas Burns started his profession as an outdoor nook, he’s transitioned to a slot function in current seasons. After scarcely taking part in in his first season in Seattle, Burns had 231 defensive snaps and a further 181 on particular groups.
If it’s a really low-cost one-year deal then it’s probably that, very similar to final yr, Burns will likely be combating for a roster spot. Final season he was waived throughout ultimate roster cuts and signed to the follow squad, then he ultimately made his method again onto the energetic roster.
