136. Treylon Burks: Best in the Nation - a podcast by Sport & Story | Arkansas Razorbacks

Treylon Burks isn’t like other top players in college football. Hailing from Warren, Ark., Burks would rather spend time in the woods than playing Fortnite. And he grew up as a water boy for a high school team featuring three future NFL players—Jarius Wright, Chris Gragg and Greg Childs. On the field, Burks always had potential. So much that his youth league made a rule to slow him down. But becoming a superstar wide receiver almost didn’t happen. Burks suffered a nearly catastrophic knee injury in high school that almost cost him his football career. And he almost didn’t choose the Razorbacks. But in the end, representing his home state and staying close to home won out. And it’s been a nonstop highlight reel since. For Treylon Burks, the only question left is if he’ll break as many records as he does defenses.
