Depending how the raw hamburger has been packaged and handled, it might not be safe to use. Only you, the consumer, can determine whether you should use it.

If the hamburger has been handled and stored properly and looks, smells and feels acceptable, then it is probably OK to cook. Unless it has been stored in a super chill drawer, it is probably starting to turn. It may even have a vinegary fragrance or tang to it due to bacterial growth. You'll have to decide whether it is worthwhile using.
