Career-high 10 catches in 2024
Burton played in all 17 regular-season games in 2024 and finished with seven carries for eight yards and a touchdown while catching 10 passes on as many targets for 65 yards and a score.
ANALYSIS
Burton didn't make the Broncos' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he eventually was signed to the active roster in mid-September after initially staying on the practice squad. He mostly served in a special-teams role and didn't play more than 13 offensive snaps in all but one regular-season game (Week 18 against the Chiefs; 24 snaps on offense). On offense, he mostly was used as an extra blocker in the running game, though he did manage to register a career-high 10 catches, three of which came Week 16 against the Chargers when he also caught a one-yard touchdown pass from Bo Nix. Burton will explore his options during the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.

Burton will enter his tenth year in the NFL this season, operating as the fullback for the Broncos in his second year with the team. Prior to joining Denver in 2023, the veteran also played for Detroit, Chicago, Washington, New Orleans and Kansas City. Burton will look to return to his role as a lead blocker for the Broncos' rushing attack, as the 32-year-old was minimally involved in the offensive attack while seeing just seven carries and three targets last season.
