Tulsa DB Donte Burton is a special-teams tone-setter with turnover value
In the 2023 season, Donte Burton appeared in eight games for Tulsa, mainly on special teams, and posted three tackles plus one fumble recovery, including a season-high two tackles in the opener and a takeaway against Oklahoma. He stands out less as a box-score producer and more as a dependable, physical depth piece who can help flip field position and capitalize on loose-ball moments. For a team, that profile fits if you want effort, special-teams reliability, and a DB who plays with urgency; the tradeoff is that his current production suggests more role player than proven every-down defender.
