It would make some sense to simply move on from Burks when Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has been a more consistent fourth receiver.<\/p>\n<p>The Commanders are a team that should be willing to give Burks a shot. They don\u2019t have much after Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson. The Cardinals brought in Burks for a pre-draft visit when Kliff Kingsbury was head coach.
