Kelly Bryant wants to leave his own legacy for Mizzou football

New Missouri Tigers quarterback Kelly Bryant said he wants to leave his own legacy.

He has a chance to do that in his lone season at Mizzou.

For nearly three decades, the Tigers only have had a handful of quarterbacks they’ve put behind center. Bryant follows quarterback Drew Lock, who started nearly all four years he was at Mizzou. But that’s not all he is following.

Before Lock was Maty Mauk, Jams Franklin, Blaine Gabbert, Chase Daniel and Brad Smith. Even before Smith, Mizzou had trusted starters in Kirk Farmer, Corby Jones and Jeff Handy. Now that’s back to almost the 1980s.
