The Missouri Tigers further beefed up their secondary for 2025 with the addition of well-traveled safety Jalen Catalon over the weekend. Catalon, a veteran ballhawk who previously played for Arkansas, Texas, and UNLV, will play his final season of college football in Columbia, a fact that must surely smart a fanbase to the south.
This was a great win for Eli Drinkwitz. His program was in need of quality safety play, and Catalon is the third transfer addition to the room. The Tigers now return two starters (Marvin Burks and Daylan Carnell), bring in a proven Power conference player (Mose Phillips), snag a G5 promotion with potential (Santana Banner), and now add one of the best players in the country at the position.
