An Ohio native, McDougald originally committed to the Ohio State University before flipping to Kansas.
Originally committing as a wide receiver, McDougald found his calling as a safety during his sophomore season. Although McDougald lost 37 of 43 games at Kansas, he still carved out a role as one of the better safeties in the conference. He went undrafted but caught on with Kansas City in 2013.
