After an offseason that saw one of the best head coaches in college football, Jim Harbaugh, heading to the NFL, one might expect a severe downturn for last year
’s national champions Michigan.
Johnson started his 2024 season off with a bang, intercepting Fresno State quarterback Mikey Keene in the fourth quarter, and taking it back 86 yards to seal the win for the Wolverines. Johnson's natural talent was on full display on the interception, instantly reading the screenplay and bursting forward, cutting off the pass and snatching it before star Bulldog wide receiver Jalen Moss could turn upfield and to the endzone.
Not only was Mason Graham noted as the best interior defensive lineman heading into the season by 247 Sports, but that same big board from PFF has him ranked higher than Johnson, being ranked the No. 2 overall player in the 2025 class. No singular player flashed more in week one for the Wolverines than former Coastal Carolina edge rusher Josaiah Stewart.
