Burkhard’s calling card: reliable leg, clutch touch, and special-teams value
In the 2017 season, Dillon Burkhard was a steady Southland special-teams piece for Southeastern Louisiana, going 8-for-11 on field goals and a perfect 47-for-47 on PATs, with all of his misses from beyond 42 yards[4][6]. Earlier at Southeastern, he also showed kickoff value and long-range upside, including a 22-yard game-winner in a 44-42 win over Nicholls and a season in which he handled kickoff duties effectively[1][5]. The fit is clear: if a team wants a kicker with proven composure, clean operation, and zero-drama extra-point reliability, Burkhard brings that goods-with-a-grin profile[2][4].
