Artie Burns

Artie Burns is a bust and this team realizes it. He played barely any snaps towards the end of the season, and for a former first-round pick, he’s been a giant disappointment. It’s time for this team to save some money and move on from Burns this offseason.

If they want to keep a cornerback around outside of Joe Haden and Mike Hilton it should be Coty Sensabaugh. He’s been a reliable corner opposite of Haden and will fill the backup role well once they bring in someone else this offseason.

Sensabaugh’s production just removes the need for Burns. Even as a backup, he’s not someone you want on the field and before they spend even more money on him, they should cut ties, admit a mistake and use the money to bring in someone useful.
