Former Notre Dame All-American Jeff Burris enshrined in Walter Camp's ‘Ring of Honor'
It was quite the career for former Notre Dame All-American cornerback Jeff Burris, and on Sunday he got even more recognition from the Walter Camp Football Foundation.
As a consensus All-American in 1993, Burris went on the be the No. 27th overall pick of the first-round of the 1994 NFL draft by the Buffalo Bills, and had a solid career as a professional. Following his playing career that ended in 2004, he took a break before returning to the gridiron as a coach. Burris would then work his way up the ladder very quickly, becoming the Miami Dolphins assistant defensive backs coach just two years after starting the profession.
He was on the Irish coaching staff in 2016 as a defensive analyst, before leaving after a season to return to being a position coach once again. Entering this coming season, he is the cornerbacks coach for the New York Giants.
Burris played in 144 total games with 19 interceptions and 536 total tackles. Adding in his 10 touchdowns scores as the primary back in Notre Dame's goal line package, Burris has had an impressive career as he has now been enshrined into the foundations 'Ring of Honor.'
Burris was one of six people to earn the honor in 2025, as we congratulate him on this amazing accomplishment.
