COLUMBIA, Mo. — The Missouri Tigers hit the practice field again Thursday during week 2 of fall camp. There was some more special teams drills today but also some exciting plays from the receivers.

Here are MissouriOnSI's notes and observations from Thursday's allotted practice viewing:

• Blake Craig went 4-for-4 on kicks in an early session at increasing distances. Nick Quadrini went 1-for-2.

• Theo Wease had an on-brand catch beautifully placed over his shoulder from Brady Cook. Wease did a great job of tracking it with Shmar McNeil in coverage, prompting a very enthusiastic "nice" scream from receivers coach Jacob Peeler.

• James Madison had a nice catch on the rep after on the same deep route to the endzone with Jaren Sensabaugh in coverage.

• True freshman Jude James was used as a fullback, possibly h-back, during a goaline drill. Ran in for a touchdown.

• Safety Isaac Thompson, on a medical redshirt, was out at practice in street clothes as head coach Eli Drinkwitz indicated at the start of fall camp.

• On the kickoff or "sharks" team: Jackson Hancock, Dreydon Norwood, Daylan Carnell, Phillip Roche, Darris Smith, Joseph Charleston, Tre'Vez Johnson and Corey Flagg Jr. along with one other gunner I missed.

• Players and their numbers that were on a roster issued by Missouri's PR staff that are not on the roster on the website:
• DE Williams Nwaneri - #6
