Dickerson entered the NFL in 2018 as an undrafted free agent from the Tennessee Titans, receiving sporadic playing time.

In three seasons with the Titans, Dickerson played in 18 games, recording 15 tackles and one tackle for loss.

After his time with the Titans, Dickerson moved to the Atlanta Falcons, where he played in six games, recording 12 tackles and one tackle for loss.

Dickerson spent 2023 with the Chiefs, playing 12 games for the team.

He recorded a career-high 15 tackles and added the third tackle for loss of his career.

Dickerson was cut to make room for linebacker Cole Christiansen.

Christianson was originally offered by the Chiefs as an exclusive rights free agent, but the offer was withdrawn.

Instead, he was fired by the team at Dickerson’s expense.
