True freshman Jack Defoor will have to wait another year to get on the field for the Rebels as Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze announced Tuesday that the offensive lineman would be redshirted.

Defoor recently underwent shoulder surgery, which ultimately led to the decision to sit the freshman for the season.

A consensus three-star prospect out of Calhoun, Ga., the 6-foot-5, 260-pound Defoor was ranked as the No. 60 offensive tackle in the nation last season by 247Sports. Defoor’s Calhoun high school teams went a combined 28-1 the last two seasons, as the lineman garnered Georgia All-State honors both seasons.
