K-State transfer, Blue Springs grad Kaleb Prewett settles in with Mizzou

Kaleb Prewett has been enrolled at Missouri for nearly a year, but he finally feels like a full-fledged member of the Tigers’ football team.

Prewett — a junior safety and Blue Springs graduate, who transferred to Mizzou from Kansas State last spring — made his Memorial Stadium debut with a game-high six tackles Saturday during the annual Black & Gold Spring Game.

“I definitely feel like I belong now,” he said. “I got the uniform on and all my people are here.”

Prewett is in line to replace Donavin Newsom as the defense’s Swiss Army knife, seeing time at strong-side linebacker, nickel and dime — primarily providing run support on the edge and covering receivers or tight ends from the slot.
