Nick Bolton never lost to Arkansas in his career at Missouri, and as the Kansas City Chiefs linebacker gets set for his own game this week, he has a simple message for the Tigers.
“Beat the Pigs, baby,” he said with a wide smile.
Bolton had a decorated career at Mizzou, and was one of the best linebackers in the SEC in his time.
During his junior campaign, he solidified himself a top linebacker as he was named a Butkus Award Finalist and was recognized as a second-team All-American by 6 different publications. He earned All-SEC First Team honors by both the AP and league’s coaches.
In 2020, Bolton collected a team-high 95 tackles and led the SEC with 67 solo tackles and 8.0 TFL, to go along with 5 PBU and 2.0 sacks.
The Chiefs selected Bolton with No. 58 pick in 2021 draft.
Bolton has started 10 games this season, and made 95 tackles with 2 sacks and an interception.
