AJ Dillon

A four-year veteran running back who plays for the Green Bay Packers football team in the NFL is AJ Dillon. He was born in Baltimore, Maryland, on May 2, 1998, and attended New London High School where he played extremely well for the school’s football team. He then went to Boston College and played for three years on the Boston College Eagles football team finishing with 4,382 rushing yards and 38 rushing touchdowns.

After being drafted by the Green Bay Packers in the 2020 NFL Draft, Dillon was made the third-string running back in his rookie season. The next year he was made the backup but he got off to a slow start. Still being used as a backup for the Packers into his fourth season, there is a possibility that he may find himself on a different team in 2024 as his rookie contract will be coming to an end.

Since Dillion was raised single-handedly by his mother Campbell, the mother and son share a very special bond that has kept them very close to each other all these years.

Life was not easy by any means for Campbell as she had to work multiple jobs and even had to go back to school to pursue her master’s degree. There were times when both of them would sit together and complete their homework.

The entire ordeal was made even more difficult considering that she had Dillion when she was only 20 years old. In an interview published by Mike Giardi for nfl.com, Dillion had the following to say about his mother:

"We grew up together," said AJ. "She had me at 20. She put herself through school, working four or five jobs, getting her master's degree, becoming a teacher, being Teacher of the Year in our town. It's unbelievable. She's unbelievable."

Despite being super busy working 4-5 different jobs, she still found time for her son and even taught him how to throw a spiral. Then she even practiced with him in the backyard running plays and the terminology. Of course, through all this, she had to take help from friends and family and couldn’t always be there for her son. Yet, despite her hectic schedule, she still managed to attend all but two of his games and those were also for genuine reasons.

Who is AJ Dillon’s Father?

As Dillon was raised by his single-parent mother, there is no information or details pertaining to his father except for the fact that his father’s name is Jameal Dillon.

Information about whether Dillion’s father left the family or if there was any other reason as to why he was raised only by his mother is also unavailable. In short, the Packers star has kept everything minor details about his father a secret and away from the media and public in general.

What Nationality are AJ Dillon’s Parents?

As mentioned earlier, there is no information about Dillon’s father and that includes his father’s nationality as well. It is speculated that his father is an American but there is no proof available. As for his mother, Jessyca’s nationality is also unknown but her side of the family is Jewish.
