Pulling down one circus catch after another, BC Lions receiver Bryan Burnham has quickly become one of the CFL’s most dangerous weapons. His five catches for 131 yards and a major in the Lions’ 30-15 win over Saskatchewan Saturday evening has also earned the human highlight reel a Top Performer nod for Week 7.
Among his more dazzling thefts on the weekend was a 36-yard catch in the first quarter which later set up his 13-yard TD strike from Travis Lulay and an amazing 50-yard snag in triple coverage with the Lions hemmed-up inside their own five yard-line.
Burnham currently sits third among all CFL receivers with 546 yards and two touchdowns on 50 catches. The Lions (5-2) will look to make it back-to-back wins as they travel to Regina this Sunday to take on the Roughriders (2-4). The next BC Lions home game is Friday, August 18 versus the Calgary Stampeders presented by Purolator.
