Wide receiver Dixon transferring from UConn

Wide receiver Keyion Dixon, who caught 44 passes for 507 yards and three touchdowns during his two years at UConn, is transferring, he announced on Twitter.

Jeff Legwold ESPN Senior Writer 

Usually the 40-yard dash grabs plenty of the attention at the NFL scouting combine, but Missouri wide receiver Emanuel Hall may have made some history Saturday. His standing broad jump was 11-feet, 9-inches. My personal charts go back to the '87 combine -- the first one in Indianapolis -- and I believe Hall's effort is the best-ever by a wide receiver and second-best overall behind Byron Jones' 12-3 in 2015. I have former Connecticut safety Obi Melifonwu at 11-8 in 2017 as the former No. 2.
