From receiver to defensive back, to Mizzou’s best NFL prospect: Kris Abrams-Draine

6’1”, 170 lb. wide receiver out of Spanish Fort, FL. Class of 2020.

That was the recruiting profile for Mizzou’s star defensive back Kris Abrams-Draine coming out of high school. He was listed as a 3-star prospect by 247 Sports and the #77 overall receiver in his class. He held offers from the likes of LSU, Ole Miss, Nebraska, West Virginia, Oregon, and a host of other Power 5 programs.

Abrams-Draine came to Columbia looking to emerge from a cluttered wide receiver room, but after only having two catches in 2020, something clearly was not working.
