Kevin Burnett

Probably a lot of injuries, the guy can't seem to stay healthy, but he's a good special teams player and a good nickle linebacker when he can stay healthy.
 
a very talented linebacker who is also very injury-proned. if he stays healthy you guys will like him a lot.
 
If he can stay healthy, I think he can be a good nickel LB.

But he's had many injuries (including knicks, etc.) in the NFL - and I think a few in college (Tenn) as well.
 
Quick to the ball, covers well, plays with passion. A little light for the 3-4 Defense and he had trouble adding weight to his frame (solid muscle with no fat by the way), so I doubt that will ever change. All the tools to start, but, as the other users have pointed out, he has been injured quite a bit. I would suspect that is why Dallas let him test the market and eventually leave, because they were concerned he would not be able to handle the rigors of sixteen games as a starter.
 
Good in coverage, class guy, seems to get nagging injuries a lot. I'd take him back. I think he was a great pick up for that price.
