Nate Burleson isn’t a particularly controversial guy. The former NFL wide receiver is a straightforward analyst for CBS Sports on The NFL Today and co-hosts CBS Mornings. However, he is a snazzy dresser. Like most television personalities, he has his own style, taste, and look that sets him apart. He generally goes for classic looks that have a timeless quality to them even if they have a bit of flare.
However, Burleson made a curious decision regarding his fashion ensemble on Sunday, raising some eyebrows. The Internet has thoughts about it.
What is Nate Burleson Wearing Here?
Burleson appeared on The NFL Today with a fresh new haircut and a bright yellow suit. His stylist is Andre Julius, who also happens to dress fellow NFL analyst Ryan Clark.
Julius’s men’s suits have a nice, clean, slim look reminiscent of vintage British suits that accentuate the wearer’s height. However, this particular look received a bit of a roasting that neither Burleson nor Julius likely expected.
Upon seeing Burleson’s haircut, one poster started things off by saying, “I need an arrest warrant for Nate Burleson’s barber right now.”

Maybe bright yellow isn’t your color, but Burleson has the sense of humor and self-awareness to weather such witticisms from the peanut gallery.
We here at PFSN are sure he will soldier on the face of this moment in the sun with aplomb and a brand new ensemble in the coming weeks.
