Devin Johnson brings versatility, steady tackling, and size to Youngstown State's linebacker room
Johnson is a developing, physical defender whose recent production points to a reliable tackler with the versatility to contribute across the secondary-to-linebacker spectrum; in 2025, he logged 29 tackles in regular-season action per ESPN, and Youngstown State lists him as a linebacker. He does not profile as a splash-play specialist yet, but his 6'1", 207-pound frame, above-average speed/acceleration grades in EA Sports College Football 26, and solid injury rating suggest a durable, rangy option who fits best as a depth piece or rotational linebacker with upside.
