Practices fully Thursday Burns (groin) was listed as a full participant on the Seahawks' practice report Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Impact Burns has been dealing with a nagging groin injury since August and wasn't able to play in Seattle's Week 1 or Week 2 games. The cornerback's injury forced Burns to practice in a limited fashion Wednesday. While there's optimism that the veteran will be able to play in Week 3, it's likely that the rookie Coby Bryant will step in as the starting slot corner against Atlanta if Burns is unable to suit up Sunday.

Practices again Wednesday Burns (groin) was listed as a limited participant on the Seahawks' practice report Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Impact Burns logged his second limited participation of the season after being completely sidelined leading up to last Friday's practice. However, the veteran cornerback was ultimately ruled inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the 49ers, leaving rookie Coby Bryant to step in with staring slot corner Justin Coleman (calf) also sidelined. Burns' status will be worth monitoring on the Seahawks' injury reports Thursday and Friday.

Won't suit up Sunday Burns (groin) was ruled inactive ahead of Sunday's game against San Francisco, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Burns' absence against the 49ers comes after he missed the entirety of the Seahawks' previous week of practice with an unspecified groin injury. With the 27-year-old and fellow veteran Justin Coleman (calf) now both set to sit out, cornerbacks Sidney Jones and Coby Bryant should step up into bigger roles in Seattle's banged-up secondary against San Francisco.

Sits out Wednesday Burns (groin) did not participate during the Seahawks' practice Wednesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Impact Burns was ultimately ruled inactive to play ahead of Seattle's season-opening loss to Denver on Monday night due to a lingering groin injury first suffered in early August. Should the 27-year-old cornerback be unavailable once again this week, veteran Justin Coleman figures to help buoy the Seahawks' now depleted secondary, which appears to have lost strong safety Jamal Adams (knee) to a season-ending injury.

Tweaks groin Tuesday Burns tweaked his groin at Tuesday's practice, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
Impact Burns suffered a groin injury Tuesday according to head coach Pete Carroll and it's not clear yet how long the injury will sideline him. When healthy, the cornerback is expected to be a significant part of the Seahawks' secondary in 2022.

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Artie Burns has never quite matched the expectations that followed him coming out of collegeAUGUST 3, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Working with first-team defense Burns began training camp Wednesday with the first-team defense, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Impact A 2016 first-round pick, Burns started his first two seasons with the Steelers but lost his job in the 2018 season and subsequently missed the entire 2020 season with a torn ACL. The 27-year-old cornerback is now on a prove-it deal with the Seahawks, but the team is apparently impressed with his abilities right out of the gate. However, he'll need to compete throughout training camp to keep his job. Sidney Jones is also running with the starters, second-year corner Tre Brown (knee) could return from the PUP list at some point and rookies Coby Bryant and Tariq Woolen have shown promise thus far.

Headed to Seattle Burns agreed to a one-year, $2 million contract with the Seahawks on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Impact Burns appeared in 11 contests for the Bears in 2021, totaling 23 tackles (19 solo) and six pass deflections. The 2016 first-round pick was a productive IDP option during his first two seasons in the league with Pittsburgh, but it's unclear if he'll garner a big enough role in Seattle to return to that level of production.

Moderate production in finale Burns notched three stops in the Bears' 31-17 Week 18 loss to the Vikings, and he ended the season with 23 tackles and four passes defensed in 11 games.
Impact After primarily playing on special teams through Week 11, Burns saw his snap share increase drastically the rest of the way, but his tackle totals were volatile from week-to-week. He'll be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and if he lands a role on a cornerback needy team, he could return to being a solid IDP option like he was in his first two years in the league.
