With the departures of Nico Collins and Giles Jackson at wide receiver this offseason, there is playing time available at the position in 2021. Cristian Dixon, an early enrollee out of Santa Ana, California, will look to carve out a role for himself as early as this season.

Dixon originally went to school at Diamond Ranch High School in Pomona, California, before transferring to Mater Dei in Santa Ana. If you’re familiar with high school football outside of your local area, you’ve undoubtedly heard of Mater Dei. The school boasts an accomplished football alumni base including Matt Leinart, Matt Barkley, JT Daniels, Colt Brennan, and Amon-Ra St.
