Nate Burleson’s Hair Style Has Social Media Going In

Nate Burleson, the morning news host, recently unveiled a striking new appearance that took inspiration from the past. To commemorate the 50th anniversary of CBS’s “The NFL Today,” aired on Sunday, September 21, Burleson donned a vibrant yellow suit jacket, complemented by a retro patterned tie reminiscent of the 1970s.While the dramatic attire certainly diverged from his usual refined aesthetic, it was Burleson’s hairstyle that truly captured the attention of football enthusiasts and social media. His Gumby-inspired, uneven box haircut featured bold mutton-chop sideburns merging with a fuller goatee.Although fans appreciated the nostalgic theme, they didn’t hesitate to humorously critique his look. Social media posts sparked playful banter, with some followers suggesting the style was a humorous misstep. Burleson later clarified the choice on X, revealing it was a homage to the anniversary, while the “NFL Today” team also embraced the 70s vibe, featuring legendary host Brent Musburger.
