Connor Dickson brings size, steady production, and late-career value to Valpo’s secondary
Connor Dickson is a 6-foot, 190-pound defensive back from Libertyville, Illinois who entered Valparaiso as a sophomore and later appeared on the Beacons’ 2025 senior-day list, suggesting a veteran presence in the secondary[1][3][13]. In the 2024 season, he logged 4 total tackles and 1 pass breakup, modest counting stats but enough to hint at a role built more on reliability, coverage trust, and special-teams or rotational value than splash plays[7]. For a team looking for a disciplined, physically mature DB who fits a program-minded culture, Dickson looks like a solid depth-and-development add rather than a headline-grabber[1][3][7].
