UNA Lions' 2018 Sack Artist Turned Morgan State Legend
Maurice Burton Jr. burst onto the scene with the North Alabama Lions in 2018, starting six of 10 games and dominating with 28 tackles, a whopping 10 TFLs, and 4 sacks for 21 yards—peaking with 6 tackles and 4 TFLs in a Delta State win—showcasing elite pass-rush intensity and run-stopping power as a DL. Later a Morgan State standout inducted into their 2025 Hall of Fame, his disruptive motor and blue-collar wrecking-ball style make him a proven fit for teams craving relentless trench warriors who elevate defenses.
