COLUMBIA, Mo. — Defensive end Darris Smith will miss the season for No. 11 Missouri after hurting his knee in practice, Tigers coach Eli Drinkwitz said Wednesday.
Smith transferred to Missouri from SEC rival Georgia, where he appeared in 16 games over his first two seasons. The 6-foot-5, 240-pound pass rusher was competing for a starting job with Michigan State transfer Zion Young.
Smith did not redshirt while at Georgia, so he still will have two years of eligibility remaining.
