Freshman mauler in the trenches: Kyler Johnson adds size and upside to Coastal Carolina
Kyler Johnson is a 6-foot-5, 340-pound freshman offensive lineman from Darlington, S.C., and Coastal Carolina has him in the 2026 mix as one of the young pieces building depth up front. He’s a classic developmental trench prospect: big frame, local product, and noted for playing both offensive and defensive line in high school, which usually signals physicality and versatility. The fit is about long-term upside more than instant stats—if a team wants a high-ceiling lineman who can grow into power and technique, he’s worth a look.
