After spending the previous two seasons with the New York Giants, Dixon has been awarded a contract to join the Los Angeles Rams in free agency. Last year, Dixon was PFF's 40th rated punter, he averaged 44.4 yards per kick, 30th in the NFL.
The Giants will be releasing Riley Dixon in order to free cap space prior to free agency next week.
