During an incident on NSW's south coast earlier this week, Burgess left his vehicle after noticing he was being filmed by another person in a separate vehicle. He allegedly got out of his car and took the phone off the other person. The police were later notified.

The Dragons have informed the NRL integrity unit. Burgess is due to join the Dragons next year after recently signing a two-year deal.
