Dr Crokes forward Micheál Burns has clarified he was dropped from the 2024 Kerry panel and did not leave it of his own accord.

The 2022 All-Ireland winner started Kerry’s opening league game of the season but did not play after that. It was later reported that he had made the call to leave the squad.
