Johnson (ankle) was a full participant at practice Wednesday.
Scouting Report
A defensive lineman with a solid build, he has the length and strength to play inside as either a nose or defensive tackle. His wrestling background helps with his core strength and leverage. However, he needs to play with more intensity and add some go-to moves as a pass rusher in order to make an impact in the pros.
Long Range Potential: Rotational interior defensive lineman.
