Baylor freshman EDGE Kamauryn Morgan signed with Missouri on Tuesday after nearly four months in the NCAA Transfer Portal, according to On3’s Pete Nakos. Morgan formally entered the portal on Dec. 30, 2025, after appearing in 10 games as a true freshman in 2025.

The 6-foot-5 and 251-pound Morgan saw limited time as the Bears’ third-string outside linebacker, participating in 125 total snaps in 2025, including 67 coming in pass-rushing scenarios. He finished with just six tackles and a quarterback hurry, with his first career tackle coming in the second week of the season against SMU.

Morgan signed with Baylor as a four-star prospect in the 2025 recruiting cycle out of South Oak Cliff (Red Oak, Tex.) High. He was the No. 35-ranked edge rusher in the class and No. 302 player overall, according to the Rivals Industry Ranking, a weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all three major recruiting media companies.

Morgan, who was considered the best available player still in the transfer portal as of this week, signed with Missouri prior to a scheduled visit to Auburn on Saturday. This was Morgan’s second commitment this offseason after originally pledging to Virginia Tech on Jan. 9 before decommitting a week later after being deemed ineligible due to an academic issue at Baylor.

Morgan reentered the portal on Jan. 16, the final day of the NCAA’s two-week portal window, and quickly became one of the more coveted players still available. Along with Auburn, Morgan received interest from Kentucky, Mississippi State and Texas.

Morgan becomes the 30th member of Missouri’s 2026 transfer portal signing class, joining fellow EDGEs Jaden Jones (Florida State), CJ May (Louisville), and Cavan Tuley (Houston), all of whom signed during the January portal window. Morgan is the Tigers’ second portal addition in the last week, joining former Northern Illinois transfer defensive lineman Mark Hensley.

Northern Illinois transfer defensive lineman Mark Hensley has signed with Missourihe told ESPN’s Pete Thamel. He entered the transfer portal shortly after the departure of NIU coach Thomas Hammock for the NFL.

Hensley spent three years at NIU, but did not play as a true freshman in 2023 to preserve a redshirt. He’s coming off a breakout season in 2025 when he totaled 32 tackles, 5.0 tackles for loss and a sack as a key part of the Huskies defense.

Hensley played high school football at Washington (Mo.), where he was a three-star prospect. He was the No. 2,304 overall player from the 2023 cycle, according to the Rivals Industry Ranking.
