Jermaine Burton is looking to make a return to the NFL after getting released by the Cincinnati Bengals.

Burton got drafted by the Bengals in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft after two seasons with the Crimson Tide. The Bengals released him in December of the 2025 season. His time in Cincinnati was riddled with off-the-field issues.

The Buffalo Bills are giving Burton a shot at a return to the NFL by inviting him to rookie minicamp, according to NFL insider, Jordan Schultz.

The former Alabama wide receiver pulled in four receptions for 107 yards during his time with the Bengals.

Burton played for the Crimson Tide during the 2022 and 2023 seasons. He pulled in 72 receptions for 1,338 yards and 14 touchdowns during his two seasons with the Tide.
