REX BURKHEAD RUMORS & GOSSIP
Bengals RB working to help young cancer patient

Burkhead gives Cornhuskers another weapon
Nebraska running back Rex Burkhead stood shivering on the sideline with his teammates Saturday afternoon, desperately hoping for an opportunity to show his injured left knee was fine. The temperature in Iowa City hovered in the mid-30s, and swirling winds made it nearly impossible to accurately throw the football.
