Charlie has been biding his time and contributing whenever he gets the chance in anticipation for moving into the WR1 role for the River Falls offense. Charlie’s offseasons have been filled with verifications of his elite speed and overall athleticism. Athleticism that has carried over to the football field. In 2025 the 2027 WR posted 17/283/2 and among those 17 catches were so many examples of how much of a mismatch Charlie can be.

Over and over this kid is 10+ yards behind the defense waiting for the football. You can’t press him with the speed he has and if you don’t have someone assigned to stay over the top of him the 2027 is going to get lost behind the secondary. Give him that cushion and he will instead beat you with the quick passing game and his elusive running through traffic. Charlie is going to show this season that it is hard to find one way to slow him down and contain him. Check out the highlights.

WR Charlie Burke Charlie Burke 6'0" | 170 lbs | WR/ATH River Falls | 2027 State WI is another great example of how deep this Class is. The ’27 WR has excellent tape that illustrate the building blocks of a very well balanced receiving threat. The speed is there to rip the top off the defense. He also has the vision, agility, and acceleration to dominate in the quick pass and screen game. Charlie is a playmaker out wide that creates mismatches in a variety of ways. The exciting part is that Charlie is just scratching the surface on all that raw athleticism. People should be excited about this kid’s future.
