WATCH: Former Florida TE Trey Burton hauls in 39-yard TD

Former Florida TE Trey Burton won a Super Bowl ring with the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2017 season, but as a free agent this offseason, he saw an opportunity to be a bigger part of his team’s offense with the Chicago Bears. Burton’s decision is looking better and better as the NFL 2018 season moves along.
In Week 4, the Bears got on the board early against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (the 12:27-mark in the first quarter) by using Burton in the passing game.
As you can watch in the play below, Burton comes in motion. He gets wide open down the field for Chicago QB Mitch Trubisky to find him for the 39-yard touchdown reception. Burton comes to the ground at the end of the catch, but he made it in the end zone to get six.
