Jefferson’s leader in tackles-for-loss (TFLs), Darius Nixon Darius Nixon 6'3" | 235 lbs | DL Cedar Rapids Jefferson | 2026 State IA is a physical specimen on the outside of the defensive line. Tall, long and possessing a thick frame Nixson has the makeup of a pass-rusher at the next level.

Whether it’s as a stand up EDGE rusher, a three-point stance defensive end or as a three-tech defensive tackle, Nixon should be able to make an impact at a variety of levels in college. If he continues to churn out production in terms of TFLs, he could get some D1 attention and, at the very least, a look from some JUCO programs that believe they could turn him into a D1 prospect.
