The Indianapolis Colts returned their top two tight ends going into the 2020 NFL season with both Mo Alie-Cox and Jack Doyle. With both tight ends fitting more as a blocking type, the Colts needed to find someone to fill the move tight end role vacated by Eric Ebron in free agency. Near the end of the offseason the perfect fit ended up being available as the Chicago Bears cut veteran tight end Trey Burton. Burton previously played for Frank Reich in Philadelphia so the signing made too much sense to not happen.
Burton churned out a solid season in Indy as he caught 31 passes for 284 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games played.
