Let go by New England The Patriots waived Dixon on Saturday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The Patriots signed Dixon in early May as an undrafted free agent out of Culver-Stockton. The bulky wide receiver finished Friday night's preseason finale against the Browns with eight receptions for 71 yards. Sunday's cutdown day extends Dixon's waiver period through Monday, but if the 25-year-old goes unclaimed, there is a strong chance he will end up as a member of the Patriots' practice squad for the beginning of the regular season.

Joining Patriots as UDFA The Patriots reportedly gave Dixon -- who is set to join the team as an undrafted free agent -- $252,500 in guaranteed money, per Chad Graff of The Athletic.

Impact That figure suggests the 6-foot-4, 220 pounder out of Culver-Stockton could push for a roster spot this summer, but Dixon will have plenty of competition to that end in New England's crowded WR corps, which could still add A.J. Brown via a trade. Graff suggests that Dixon could be developed into a backup for Mack Hollins (6-foot-4, 221 pounds), and if the rookie isn't included on the team's initial 53-man roster ahead of the 2026 season, a spot on New England's practice squad could await.
