Lions re-sign WR Bryan Burnham to 2-year contract

The BC Lions will have 2016 breakout receiver Bryan Burnham back in the fold next season, as the two sides agreed on a new two-year contract, the team announced.

After combining for 41 receptions, 536 yards, and three touchdowns across his first two seasons, Burnham exploded in 2016, finishing fourth in the CFL with 1,392 yards on 79 catches.

Burnham and teammate Emmanuel Arceneaux combined for 2,958 yards and 184 receptions in 2016, giving the Lions quite the duo for quarterback Jonathon Jennings moving forward.
