Scouting Report

Missouri · 2025 draft class

Burden is an electric playmaker with exceptional athleticism and route-running sophistication. He possesses elite short-area quickness and change-of-direction ability, making him nearly impossible to cover in one-on-one situations. Burden creates separation with precise footwork and sudden breaks at the top of routes. His hands are reliable, with the concentration to make difficult catches in traffic. After the catch, Burden transforms into a running back, with the vision, elusiveness, and contact balance to create explosive plays.
