2024 Fantasy Outlook
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.

Finds end zone in loss
Burton caught all three of his targets for 19 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Burton's touchdown was his first score through the air this season and second trip to the end zone overall in 2024. The veteran fullback played just 10 of the Broncos' 64 offensive snaps Thursday, playing in his usual part-time role in Denver's offense. Despite the score in Week 16, Burton remains far off the fantasy radar due to his extremely limited usage. Next up for the Broncos is a matchup against the Bengals in Week 17.

Burton has held a lead blocking role for four different teams over the last six seasons and will add a fifth in Kansas City for the 2021 campaign, assuming he holds on to a roster spot out of training camp. He doesn't typically present much upside as a rusher or receiver, posting a maximum of seven carries (2020) in a season and at most six targets (2015).
