Miami Hurricanes RB Robert Burns ready to contribute
After dealing with injuries throughout his high school career and first two years with the Miami Hurricanes, running back Robert Burns is ready to contribute.
Robert Burns was a three-star signee out of Gulliver Prep primarily because he dealt with injuries throughout his high school career. Burns has been impressive through the first week-plus of training camp for the Miami Hurricanes in 2019.
With sophomore Lorenzo Lingard returning from an injury, Burns will get a chance to play early in 2019. Buried as the fifth-string running back before Lingard’s injury and fourth afterward, Burns was limited to two carries for 10 yards in 2018. More is expected from the 5’11, 215-pound RB this fall.
