New Mexico’s old-school TE benchmark, but current 2026 production is unclear
Jonathan Burrough is a former New Mexico tight end best known for steady, efficient production: in the 1997-2000 seasons, he totaled 14 catches for 152 yards and 3 touchdowns, averaging 10.9 yards per catch[2]. The useful takeaway is the role profile, not gaudy numbers—he was described as a three-year starter, which signals trust, durability, and assignment reliability in a tight-end room[4]. For a modern fit, he reads more like a dependable blocker-first TE than a splashy stat producer, but current 2026 performance data for a New Mexico player by this name is not clearly available from the sources gathered[3][8].
