Derek Johnson brings old-school trench toughness to Weber State
In the 2008 season, Weber State nose guard Derek Johnson stood out as a battle-tested interior lineman: he returned from a severe knee injury, played through nagging injuries, and was described by the program as a versatile inside defender and a true team leader. His edge is toughness and dependability more than flash — the kind of DT who can anchor the middle, absorb double teams, and keep the defense organized. If a roster wants intensity, experience, and a captain-type presence, Johnson is a strong fit.
