Mississippians show out in Reese’s Senior Bowl
SUMMARY: South Carolina QB Spencer Rattler shone as MVP in the 2024 Senior Bowl, but four Mississippi players also impressed. Nathaniel Watson (Mississippi State), McKinley Jackson (Texas A&M/Lucedale), Cedric Johnson (Ole Miss), and Jaden Crumedy (Mississippi State) contributed meaningfully to the American team’s performance. Despite the American team’s yard dominance, the National team secured a 16-7 victory, spearheaded by consistent defense and efficient red-zone conversions. Post-game, players look ahead to the combine and NFL Draft to boost their prospects. Watson, who led with seven tackles, aims to capitalize on these platforms to improve his draft stock.
