FCS Players Shine at NFLPA Collegiate Bowl

The 2022 NFLPA Collegiate Bowl went down on Saturday afternoon and NFL hopefuls from around the country got the chance to showcase their talents. While the contest features players from all levels of college football, it was the kids from FCS schools that stole the show in Pasadena.

It was clear early on who all the eyes were going to be on. Dai’Jean Dixon, coming out of Nicholls, hauled in a big 24-yard pass in the opening quarter and helped the American Team on a lengthy scoring drive. It was Jequez Ezzard (Sam Houston), though, that brought in the game’s first touchdown, a 13-yd strike from quarterback Chase Garbers.
