PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT

Will Johnson presents a dynamic blend of size, speed, and physicality that profiles him as a future No. 1 NFL cornerback. With elite-level coverage instincts, Johnson excels in both man and zone schemes, showing impressive route recognition and anticipation skills. His long frame (6�2�) and fluidity enable him to contest larger receivers effectively, while his quick-twitch athleticism supports top-level man coverage against speedier opponents. In run defense, Johnson is a willing and physical tackler, making him valuable in schemes demanding versatility and physicality. Projected as a shutdown corner capable of elevating an NFL secondary, Johnson�s skill set should allow for immediate impact and the potential for Pro Bowl-level contributions.
