Howard TE Jimmie Johnson: a Bison legend with NFL-level production
Jimmie Johnson is a Howard tight end whose impact is defined by proven receiving production rather than flash—he finished his Howard career with 73 catches for 1,229 yards and 16 touchdowns, then turned that into a 10-year NFL run after being drafted in 1989. That combination of dependable hands, red-zone value, and big-game polish is why he stands out; he was also a first-team All-MEAC pick as a senior, showing he could anchor an offense and win at the point of attack.
