David Kanter asks: All things considered, including 2025 edge contracts being inked, do you think Brian Burns contract is a good one?
Ed says: David, I do not have a problem with the Burns contract.
I know you can look at the sack numbers and say 8.5 isn’t enough for a player with the fourth-highest average salary per year among edge defenders. There is, though, so much more than sack numbers that should be considered.
When do many sacks occur? In the fourth quarter when teams are passing because they are trailing and are desperate.
