Micah Johnson is a physical, special-teams-first linebacker climbing into a bigger Louisiana role
In the 2024 season, Micah Johnson was a reserve linebacker for Louisiana who appeared in 10 games and worked primarily on kickoff coverage, and in 2025 he logged 4 total tackles across 13 games, hinting at a player trusted for effort and reliability rather than splash plays. At 6-0, 232, the Baton Rouge product brings compact, downhill physicality and special-teams value; the key question is whether his instincts and consistency can translate into a larger defensive workload in 2026.
