Ole Miss Rebels quarterback Jaxson Dart has officially announced that the 2024 season will be his last with the team. The decision marks a major shift for the Rebels, as Dart has been an instrumental player for the program since his arrival.
Since transferring to Ole Miss, Jaxson Dart has been a standout figure for the Rebels, leading the team with his impressive arm strength and athleticism. His leadership and skill have helped the Rebels compete in the highly competitive SEC. As the team’s starting quarterback, Dart has delivered key performances in high-stakes games, earning the respect of his teammates and fans alike.
Dart announced his decision to the team, simply stating, “This is my last year with the Rebels.” Although he did not elaborate on his reasons, speculation surrounds whether Dart plans to declare for the NFL Draft or explore other opportunities. His announcement comes as the Rebels prepare for a challenging season, adding a layer of urgency to make the most of Dart’s final run.
Losing a player of Dart’s caliber will leave a significant void in the Ole Miss offense. Head coach Lane Kiffin and his staff will now need to focus on grooming Dart’s replacement, whether through recruiting or developing current backups. While the Rebels have always found ways to stay competitive, the loss of a player like Dart signals a pivotal moment for the program.
