In a surprising twist, ESPN’s Football Power Index (FPI) has sparked speculation about quarterback Jaxson Dart potentially returning for another year with Ole Miss football. Dart, who had an impressive 2024 season under head coach Lane Kiffin, is widely viewed as a potential NFL prospect, but the FPI projections suggest he may stay in Oxford to further develop his game.
Dart was a key figure in the Rebels’ high-powered offense last season, showcasing his dual-threat abilities and poise in crucial moments. His return would provide continuity and stability for Ole Miss, which is set to bring in another strong recruiting class and make a push in the ever-competitive SEC.
While many expected Dart to declare for the NFL Draft, his decision could hinge on factors such as NIL opportunities, team goals, and his personal development. If Dart does return, the Rebels would immediately position themselves as contenders for the SEC West title in 2025.
