Answer:

There is a sunnah for Asr prayer - but only before; not after. The same holds true for Fajr prayer. There is not supposed to be any voluntary prayer, even, between the end of Fajr prayer and sunrise, and between the end of Asr prayer and sunset.

The reason is simply that the Prophet did not want people to pray too close to sunrise and sunset - because human nature is inclined to worship the sun - if prayers are done then. That is what people used to do for centuries; so Muhammad avoided it.
