The Ole Miss Rebels football team has secured a major addition to their roster with the transfer of wide receiver Dante Cephas from Penn State. Cephas, a talented and explosive pass catcher, announced his decision to join the Rebels in a move that bolsters Ole Miss’ receiving corps heading into the 2025 season. This acquisition is a significant one for head coach Lane Kiffin and his offense, which has consistently been known for its high-powered aerial attack.
Cephas, who spent the previous season at Penn State, was one of the standout performers for the Nittany Lions in the passing game. Known for his ability to make big plays and create separation, Cephas brings not only athleticism but also experience at a high level of competition. His decision to transfer to Ole Miss reflects the program’s growing reputation for developing talented skill players and producing NFL-caliber athletes.
At Ole Miss, Cephas will have the opportunity to play in an offense led by quarterback Jaxson Dart, which could further enhance his visibility for the upcoming NFL Draft. The Rebels’ offense has consistently been one of the most dynamic in college football under Kiffin, and Cephas’ addition is expected to provide an immediate impact.
With this transfer, Ole Miss adds another weapon to its arsenal and strengthens its chances of contending in the competitive SEC, where explosive playmakers are critical for success. The Rebels now look poised for another exciting season as they continue to build on their offensive depth and playmaking ability.
