DESCRIPTION
Dixon had another NFL tryout, and this time he impressed enough to earn himself a deal. The former Ohio State wide receiver signed a contract with the Dallas Cowboys, his agent Jason Bernstein announced on Monday afternoon. Dixon isn't guaranteed a roster spot, but he will have a chance to prove himself now that he's healthy again. He went undrafted in 2019 and was soon signed as a free agent by Houston Texas who cut him on Aug. 31 of that year. The Arizona Cardinals picked him up, and he spent his rookie season on their practice squad – though he dealt with a hamstring injury. After the season, he inked a reserve/future contract with them, but he dealt with an abdomen injury and was waived in September 2020 with an injury settlement. This time, Dixon's shot to make a case that he belongs in the NFL will come in Dallas. As a Buckeye, Dixon fought through significant injury issues that threatened his career to record 67 receptions for 1,146 yards and 16 touchdowns across his five-year career. He was a team captain as a redshirt senior. -Colin Hass-Hill Johnnie Dixon Overview Strengths Smooth strider with rapid turnover Ramps up the long speed quickly if he gets a free release His eight touchdowns in 2018 averaged 32 yards per catch Aggressive hand slaps await jabbing press coverage Feet are sudden with early acceleration Quick-stop potential on comeback routes Possesses athletic traits to improve separation skill Works the middle of the field effectively Finds open space in zone and catches with desired focus Kick returner and gunner on punt team Weaknesses Best-suited outside, but he's undersized Arms are short and hands can be inconsistent Distracted and detoured by press-corners who land on him early Gets trapped against the sideline by longer cornerbacks Doesn't allow intermediate routes to breathe and develop Gives away upcoming route break with excessive lean Lacks route savvy to step and stem coverage off of him Average elusiveness and vision after the catch Gets overwhelmed by size as a blocker This channel (((Law Nation))) primarily consists of NFL Film Session + Breakdown and Reviews of complete NFL Games and Quick Film Sessions.
