LSU DT Powerhouse Turned Virginia DB Star with NFL Pedigree
Anthony Johnson, the 6-4, 300+ lb LSU Tigers defensive tackle (born 1/24/1993), brings elite recruit pedigree (No. 8 nationally per 247Sports) and raw power to dominate lines, but his transfer path—from LSU to Louisville to Virginia (where he flipped to DB, posting 44 tackles, 3 INTs, 9 PBUs in 2021)—highlights versatility and football IQ. Strengths: disruptive quickness, relentless motor; no major injury flags. Ideal fit for teams needing a high-upside interior pass rusher with pro instincts—watch for 2026 breakout if he bulks back up.
