Ole Miss will honor the legacy of Luke Knox on Saturday at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium when the Rebels face Central Arkansas.
Knox, the younger brother of Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox, spent four seasons as a Rebel before transferring to Florida International University. He passed away on August 17. The cause of death has not been revealed.
Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin took to social media to express what Knox meant to the program. In a tweet, Kiffin said, “Luke Knox meant so much to so many of us, and we look forward to welcoming his wonderful family back to the Vaught this weekend as we honor Luke’s legacy and his indelible impact on Ole Miss football.”
