Missouri Tigers football will begin fall camp on August 1, just over a month before their season opener against Arkansas Pine-Bluff on September 3. With a new offensive playcaller and starting quarterback, Mizzou faces significant roster changes, including the replacement of three out of four top receivers. Key position battles are anticipated, particularly at right tackle, following the injury of Josh Atkins. Additionally, Ahmad Hardy, last season's most impactful offensive player, has been medically cleared to return to play protocol but his progression remains uncertain.
