After two seasons as a solid, but unremarkable contributor for the Ole Miss defense, Tavius Robinson showed up in a big way for his fifth year of eligibility, leading the Rebels in sacks (7) and forced fumbles (5) in 2022, filling the role many expected Cedric Johnson to assume. With Johnson playing injured, or not playing at all for much of 2022, Robinson emerged as the team’s best pass rusher and played himself into consideration for the NFL draft. Robinson played for two years at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada, transferring to Ole Miss when Canadian schools shut down their college football season during the pandemic.
