NFL Rebels Update: Week Six

10/15/2025 | Football

OXFORD, Miss. – Here at OleMissSports.com, we are proud to update Rebel fans on the status of our former players who lace up their cleats on Sundays in the NFL.

Nineteen former Rebels played in Week Six. New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart made his first career primetime start on Thursday Night Football against the divisional rival Philadelphia Eagles in front of 81,564 fans. Five minutes into the game, Dart scrambled in from 20 yards out to score the first touchdown of the game. Later in the first quarter, he escaped pressure before finding his receiver for another touchdown. Dart would finish the game 17-of-25 for 195 yards through the air, with 13 carries for 58 yards. His 81.8 PFF passing grade ranked fifth in the league, and his 82.3 running grade ranked second in the league amongst quarterbacks in Week Six. At 508 yards, four touchdowns, and two interceptions, Dart is off to the best start ever by an Ole Miss quarterback in the NFL. By comparison, Archie Manning had the next best start with the New Orleans Saints in 1971 at 485 yards, four touchdowns, and three interceptions. 

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox hauled in his first touchdown of the year, a 19-yard grab to tie the game up in the first quarter against the Falcons on Monday Night Football. Knox earned a PFF pass blocking grade of 78.0, the best grade by a tight end in Week Six.
