Burrell will now have one year of eligibility remaining.

His best season came in 2021 where he played in 12 matches and came up with 41 tackles. He also totaled two tackles for loss and defended seven passes.

Out of high school, Burrell committed to Jeremy Pruitt's program.

He was a four-star prospect in the class of 2019 out of Suwanee, Ga. He was the No. 29 player in the Peach State and the No. 27 cornerback.

His 5.8 rivals ranking made him the sixth-highest-rated player in Tennessee's class for that cycle.
