Friday night's third preseason game against the Tennessee Titans is more than a reunion for former Chiefs players – it's a reunion for former college teammates and a homecoming for area standouts.
Both the Titans and the Chiefs have four former Missouri Tigers each on their respective rosters, playing in different seasons over the span of almost a decade. The latest are Chiefs center Mitch Morse and Titans wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham, who were both picked in the second round of 2015 NFL draft.
Missouri is set to play at Arrowhead Stadium on November 14 against the BYU Cougars.
