Missouri Tigers football head coach Eli Drinkwitz gave a 'lofty' pro comparison for wide receiver Luther Burden III.
There's not much to debate that Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden III is perhaps the best returning pass-catcher in college football for next season.
recently about Burden and what makes him stand out among the players not only in the 2025 NFL Draft class, but also the group of receivers that were selected a little over a month ago. Drinkwitz referenced the Tigers' game against Kansas State this past season, when Burden caught a check-down that wasn't even supposed to go to him and he took to the house for six. But in the thriller against Florida, Drinkwitz was even more perplexed by the then-sophomore receiver.
Drinkwitz said that Burden's first "mega-moment" was a punt return against Abilene Christian, when he picked up the ball after wrongfully letting it bounce. Drinkwitz explained that Burden has had "several of those moments," which led to him answering Thamel's question about a pro comparison.
