Purdue's added its second wide receiver commitment for the 2021 class, as Rivals.com three-star prospect Deion Burks announced for the Boilermakers on Wednesday.

The 5-foot-10, 175-pounder from talent-rich Belleville High School in Michigan chose Purdue over a final list that also included Iowa State, Indiana, Kentucky, Cincinnati and Boston College.

"It was just the best fit for me all-around," Burks said.
