UIW’s long, physical DB Lamont Johnson-Burrell is already pushing for a starting role
Johnson-Burrell has the profile UIW wants on the back end: a 6-foot-3, long-armed cornerback who earned rave reviews from coaches after transferring from Sacramento State, and he’s listed as a top option in the Cardinals’ 2026 secondary depth chart. In 2025, he posted 2 tackles, 1 pass breakup, and 1 forced fumble at Sacramento State, and ESPN’s player log shows he also handled limited return work in 2024. He looks like a fit for teams that value length, versatility, and edge in coverage rather than just box-score splash.
