Breon Dixon, Defensive back

Breon came to Ole Miss from Grayson County, Georgia (Yes, the same Grayson County that gave us the Nkemdiche brothers). While at Grayson he helped the Rams to their 7A state championship in 2016. As well as posting 64 tackles and a ridiculous 20 tackles for loss. Dixon was an early enrollee so he has had all spring to train with the Rebels. Posting one sack in the Grove Bowl.

Next: Big Expectations!

Originally playing linebacker, his athletic ability, and nose for the ball has led Breon to play the DB position. So far the transition has not seemed to affect him and I’m sure being under Coach McGriff will have Breon being a playmaker this upcoming season.
