As we approach kickoff for Super Bowl LX, at least one former Missouri Tiger will take home ring when it's all said and done. The New England Patriots have two former Tigers on their roster in Yasir Durant and Marcus Bryant while the Seattle Seahawks have quarterback Drew Lock.
So while three Tigers will have a chance at a Lombardi trophy, just how likely is it that we will see any on the field?

Could any former Tigers see action in the Super Bowl?
Lock is the backup to Sam Darnold in Seattle, and would be unlikely to see any action barring an injury. Darnold has actually been dealing with an oblique issue, but has yet to miss any time because of it. However, if Darnold strains his oblique during the game, it would be Lock to come in to the rescue. He has just 15 yards passing on the year.
For New England, Durant and Bryant have been inactive for most of the year, with Bryant playing just 19 snaps all year and Durant playing none. If activated, much like Lock the Mizzou duo for the Pats will only see action if there is an injury. Still, making a Super Bowl as a rookie for Bryant is nothing short of amazing.
Kickoff will be at 5:30 central and some four hours later one, or two, of these Tigers will be able to add Super Bowl Champion to thier long list of accomplishments.
