Alabama State LB Denzel Johnson brings veteran playmaking and back-end versatility
Denzel Johnson looks like a steady, experience-driven piece for Alabama State: in the 2024 season, he played nine games in the secondary and on special teams, finishing with 16 tackles, three QB hurries, and a pass breakup, while ESPN lists him with 24 solo tackles and one interception in 2025 season stats[3][5]. His value is less about splashy totals than versatility, urgency, and football IQ, traits that show up in multiple roles and on special teams[3]. If your team wants a reliable, multi-use defender who can help in coverage, pressure packages, and effort-driven snaps, he’s a fit[3][5].
