QB Drew Lock will return to Mizzou for senior season | The Kansas City Star

Drew Lock isn’t going anywhere.

Missouri’s junior quarterback announced on Tuesday that he will return for his senior season. Lock had considered forgoing his final year of eligibility to declare for the NFL Draft, but he decided to follow the draft advisory board’s advice to stay in school.

The board, which tends to offer conservative assessments, tells prospects to return to school if it does not believe they will be first- or second-round picks in the upcoming draft.

He entered the season off the radar of most NFL teams after mediocre seasons as a freshman and sophomore.
