Coach Vonteze Burfict - pally - 08-07-2025
Never thought I would see that title associated with that player but he's working as a defensive analyst for former Bengals DC Paul Guenther at UNLV

There was that video of him with Gruden, talking about how he wanted to get into coaching last year, right?
Good for him, hope he's great at it and it's fulfilling.

Always liked the Taze, he went after them stealers ha ha
Good for him, agree that he isn't the type I think would be a coach as he was more of an instinctual Linebacker than a smart one.
His biggest problem was he was dirty at times and he tackled too much with his head down which led to concussions that ended his career.
But will always wish him the best, he gave his all for the Bengals no doubt. Good to see him still with Paulie G.
