Veteran UNLV Run-Stuffer With Academic Ironman Vibes
In the 2024 season, Jalen Dixon was a steady senior presence for UNLV, appearing in 12 games and posting 3 solo tackles, 9 assists, 1.5 sacks, and 1 forced fumble, while also earning 2024 preseason All-Mountain West recognition from Athlon and Phil Steele[1][3][5]. At 6-foot-1, 265 pounds, he profiles as a physical, assignment-sound defensive lineman who brings experience, consistency, and high character—he was also a four-time Academic All-Mountain West selection and an NFF Hampshire Honor Society honoree, which screams dependable fit for a disciplined front[3][7].
