One of the nation’s best tight ends is in the running for an award that annually honors the top former walk-on.

Wisconsin tight end Troy Fumagalli walked on with the Badgers in 2013. On the season, Fumagalli has 30 catches for 401 yards and three touchdowns. He is a big reason why Wisconsin is currently undefeated this season.

The trophy is named in honor of Brandon Burlsworth. Without one Division I scholarship offer, Burlsworth walked on to the Arkansas team in 1994, and later became a three-year starter and was eventually named an All-American in 1998.
