Mizzou lands Florida edge rusher for 2020 class

Heading into the final weekend for national signing day, the Missouri football team landed another verbal commitment for the 2020 class, getting a pledge Monday from three-star edge rusher Johnny Walker.

The Tampa, Fla., native had been committed to Washington State but visited Mizzou over the weekend and announced his commitment on social media. He's listed as a defensive end on the Mizzou graphic he posted on Twitter. As a senior at Chamberlain High School, Walker made 47 tackles and 12 sacks. He also holds offers from Power Five schools Georgia Tech, Illinois and Kansas State.
