Biography
PRO: The Titans selected Treylon Burks in the first round (18th overall) of the 2022 NFL Draft. The 6-foot-2-inch, 225-pounder brings a rare combination of size, speed and sure hands. The Arkansas product is a powerful runner with the ball in his hands, and he can be used all over the offensive formation as well as in the return game. In three college seasons (2019-21), he became the sixth all-time leading receiver in Razorbacks history (146 receptions for 2,399 yards) and tied for the fifth-most touchdown catches in school annals (18). He was drafted with the highest pick of any Arkansas player since Darren McFadden was taken fourth overall in 2008, and he was the first Arkansas wide receiver to be selected in the first round since Matt Jones was taken 21st overall by Jacksonville in 2006.
CAREER HIGHLIGHTS:
• As a junior at Arkansas in 2021, Burks was named first-team All-SEC after totaling 66 receptions (seventh in the SEC) for 1,104 yards (fourth) and 11 touchdowns (fourth). His 92.0 receiving yards per game ranked third in the SEC behind only Jameson Williams (104.8) and Wan'Dale Robinson (102.6).
• As a sophomore in 2020, he was named second-team All-SEC after contributing 51 receptions for 820 yards and seven touchdowns. His 91.1 receiving yards per game ranked third in the SEC behind only Elijah Moore (149.1) and DeVonta Smith (142.8).
