Brett Norfleet - Should be full-go by fall camp Norfleet (shoulder) remains limited for Missouri but is expected to be full-g by fall camp, per the Columbia Daily Tribune.

Impact Norfleet still isn't a full participant with the Tigers, but given that he's expected to heal by fall camp, this isn't an injury that should cause too much concern for fantasy managers. The tight end caught 31 passes for 254 yards and five touchdowns last fall.

He showed flashes last season as a true freshman, tossing for 503 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions in limited action, but he'll have to wait a little longer to earn his first collegiate starting role. He's now likely slated to be Missouri's QB2.

Austin Simmons - Named Tigers' starting QB Simmons has been named Missouri's starting quarterback, per Eli Hoff of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Impact Simmons was reportedly competing with returnee Matt Zollers for the starting quarterback gig, but he's wrapped up the competition at the conclusion of Missouri's spring practice period. The gunslinger was initially slated to be Ole Miss' starting quarterback in 2025, but he lost his job to Trinidad Chambliss after sustaining an ankle injury. He put up 744 passing yards, four touchdowns and five interceptions last season on 60 percent completion, with 71 rushing yards and a score on the ground as well.

Impact Zollers, a former blue-chip quarterback recruit for the Tigers, saw action in eight games last season as a true freshman. He tossed for 503 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions while completing 53.4 percent of his passes, gaining valuable experience in the meantime. His opponent in the quarterback battle Simmons lost his job to Trinidad Chambliss last season after a shaky start to the year in which he produced a 4:5 touchdown-to-interception ratio. This battle could be wide open, and is likely set to rage all offseason.

Austin Simmons - Battling Zollers in QB competition Simmons is battling Matt Zollers for the Tigers' starting quarterback gig, per Pete Nakos of On3.

Impact Simmons was expected to be the Ole Miss starting quarterback in 2025, but injuries and poor play opened the door for Trinidad Chambliss to take over that role, and the rest is history. Simmons finished the 2025 season with 744 passing yards, four touchdowns and five interceptions on 60 percent completion, also rushing for 71 yards and a score. His competition Zollers is a former four-star recruit who saw action in eight games as a freshman last season.

Blake Craig - On track to return Craig (knee) is on track to return, Calum McAndrew of the Columbia Tribune reports.

Impact After suffering an ACL tear in August, Craig did not play Missouri's 2025 season. But for Mizzou's spring practice, he is already seen working on field goals, indicating that his previously injured knee will be good to go. Craig will look to return to his 2024 role as the Tigers' primary placekicker, which is definitely a possibility considering their kicking depth.

Matt Zollers - In competition for starting role Zollers will be part of a four-player competition for the starting quarterback job, Cody Goodwin of 247Sports reports.

Impact Zollers appeared in seven games as a true freshman, completing 53.4 percent of his passes for 503 yards and a 4:2 TD:INT. While 2025 starter Beau Pribula has transferred out, the Tigers added Austin Simmons (Ole Miss) and Nick Evers (UConn) in the transfer portal. Those two, plus Zollers and true freshman Gavin Sidwar are all in the competition for QB1, according to head coach Eli Drinkwitz. Zollers likely has the second-best chances, behind Simmons.

MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE

Austin Simmons - Facing competition to start Missouri head coach Eli Drinkwitz said Monday that Simmons will be part of a four-player competition to be QB1, Cody Goodwin of 247sports reports.

Impact Simmons lost the starting job at Ole Miss after being injured early in the season, and he transferred to Missouri, where he stands as the favorite to serve as the starting quarterback. However, he'll have to prove himself to earn the position, as returner Matt Zollers, UConn transfer Nick Evers and true freshman Gavin Sidwar are also in the mix for the role, per Drinkwitz.
