Versatile, Team-First Tight End with Real Special Teams Value
Cole Burniston has shown himself to be a dependable, versatile piece for Buffalo, appearing in 13 games as a redshirt freshman in 2019 and seven games in 2020, where he contributed on special teams and as a blocking tight end. That kind of usage tells you a lot: he’s a selfless, assignment-sound player who can help in the dirty-work areas that winning teams love. For a roster looking for a physical TE who can block, cover kicks, and do the little things right, Burniston looks like a strong fit.
