As a proud descendant of a former slave turned entrepreneur, he was one of the first three Black Americans to play football at the University of Miami. Burgess earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology/Chemistry and was simultaneously selected as a 1st team College All-American. As a first round draft pick, he played for the Jets and later the 1980 Super Bowl XV Champions, the Oakland Raiders. His post-football-career life included a business failure, highlighting for him the American Way, which allows for second chances. Burgess is now Executive Director for the Utah Chapter of The One Heart Project, a prison reform model designed to give juvenile offenders a “true” second chance to be proud, productive, and contributing American citizens.
