Colts' Deion Burks: Taking over larger role
Colts coach Shane Steichen said Wednesday that Burks and Anthony Gould will step into larger roles after the team traded Keenan Allen and Josh Downs, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports.
A rookie seventh-round pick with 4.30 speed, Burks has caught six of nine targets for 60 yards across 49 routes (18.3 percent target rate, 1.22 yards per route). He won't necessarily see a lot of targets in an offense that runs through the RBs and TEs, but Burks should at least get far more playing time in the second half of the season, if only because the Colts' other wideouts are veterans with minimal history of production. Laquon Treadwell and Ashton Dulin are the other favorites for regular playing time, and Nick Westbook-Ikhine is also on the roster.

Colts' Deion Burks: Notches one reception in Week 9
Burks played 17 of the Colts' 64 offensive snaps in Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Cowboys, finishing with a zero-yard reception on his lone target.
A rookie seventh-round pick out of Oklahoma, Burks has seen sparse playing time through the Colts' first nine games. He's logged less than one-third of the snaps in each of those contests and has posted a 6-60-0 receiving line on nine targets go with 21 yards on three carries. Despite his modest output to date, Burks could nonetheless be primed for more opportunities in the Indianapolis passing game over the second half of the season. Tight end Tyler Warren will likely rank as the team's top pass-catching option, but the Colts should have plenty of targets left over after trading away Josh Downs to the Chiefs on Tuesday. Meanwhile, top wideout Alec Pierce (heel) lacks a clear timeline to return from injured reserve.

Colts' Deion Burks: Picked by Colts
The Colts selected Burks in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 254th overall.
No one would have thought anything of it if the Colts had taken Burks in the fourth round rather than the seventh, so this can only be seen as an ideal end-of-draft selection. Burks' lack of production at Purdue and Oklahoma generally indicates a limitation in his wide receiver skill set, but if the weak parts of his game ever improve, he has the athleticism to become quite useful. Small as he is at 5-foot-10, 180 pounds, Burks' athleticism is loud -- his 4.30-second 40-yard dash, 42.5-inch vertical jump and 131-inch broad jump are all well above the 90th percentile for wide receivers.
