About Vontaze Burfict

  • ( VON-tez BUR-fikt; born September 24, 1990) is an American football linebacker for the Oakland Raiders of the National Football League (NFL).
  • He played college football at Arizona State.
  • Considered the most highly ranked football prospect Arizona State ever signed to a letter of intent, Burfict was recognized as an All-American in 2010 and projected an early first round pick for the 2012 NFL Draft.
  • However, a mediocre on-field performance and poor pre-draft workouts diminished his draft stock and he ultimately went unselected.
  • He was subsequently signed by the Cincinnati Bengals as an undrafted free agent in 2012, where he played for seven seasons. Burfict had a productive rookie season, starting 14 games and leading the team in tackles and later earned Pro Bowl honors in 2013.
