Rebuilding the secondary was a focal point for the Ole Miss Rebels this offseason. After losing its starting cornerbacks from 2023 to the NFL and a couple of safeties to the NCAA Transfer Portal, Ole Miss was forced to give its defensive back room a facelift. The secondary did not gain any elite talent that is comparable to Walter Nolen or Princely Umanmielen, but this is still shaping up to be a formidable unit in 2024. Trey Washington and John Saunders Jr. both held down Ole Miss' starting safety roles in 2023, and they will continue to play a role in 2024.
