MJ Burnett commits to Georgia Tech, choosing rival over Georgia

MJ Burnett, a three-star defensive back and son of former NFL player Morgan Burnett, has announced his commitment to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets for the 2027 season. The 6-foot-3, 200-pound recruit chose Georgia Tech over offers from Georgia, Miami, and Ohio State after being a top target for the Bulldogs. His commitment represents a notable decision in recruiting as the Georgia Bulldogs have been gaining momentum in recent weeks with other commitments. Burnett, ranked as the No. 38 cornerback and No. 493 overall player by the 247Sports Composite Rankings, will remain in his home state of Georgia for college football.
