He collected 53 catches for 901 yards receiving and eight scores in two years. Traeshon Holden, a rising junior receiver for Alabama, played the role of recruiting Burton to the Tide from the portal.

Eli Ricks, a transfer cornerback from Louisiana State University, posted a photo of him and Burton at Alabama on his Instagram.

Burton is now in the atmosphere of the Crimson Tide. Spring football is going to be entertaining at the receiver position.
