Jerrod Burrell anchors Morgan State’s offensive front with veteran punch
In 2025, Jerrod Burrell earned MEAC Offensive Lineman of the Week after grading out above 80 percent and helping Morgan State pile up 340 total yards, including 181 rushing, against South Alabama[4][6]. At 6-foot-4, 315 pounds, the Baltimore native brings size, experience, and steady trench play, and he was named to the 2026 HBCU Legacy Bowl roster, a nice marker of league-level respect[3][5][10][15]. Why care? He looks like a dependable, physical interior blocker who can help set the tone for a run game and hold up against better competition, which is exactly the kind of old-school, don’t-blink OL fit coaches love[4][6].
