Syracuse Football: Orange acquire polished 3-star wide receiver

Nazir Burnett, a wide receiver from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania committed to Syracuse last Friday, concluding a big recruiting weekend for the Syracuse coaching staff.

Burnett stars at Bishop McDevitt high school in Harrisburg, where he is a three star athlete, according to 247sports.com. In addition to the Syracuse offer, Burnett also has received offers from the likes of Michigan State, Pittsburgh, and West Virginia. He joins Courtney Jackson, another Pennsylvania product, as the two receivers committed to Syracuse in the 2019 class.

At 6-foot 1 and 170-pounds, it is likely that Burnett will play outside receiver at Syracuse.
