SDSU’s Explosive Sophomore RB with Elite Agility and 6-TD 2025 Season
Josiah Johnson, a 6'0", 220-lb sophomore RB from Milwaukee, WI, delivered a breakout 2025 season for South Dakota State, finishing second on the team in rushing with 320 yards and 6 TDs on 78 carries (4.1 avg) [1][3][5]. Differentiated by explosive agility and a well-muscular frame, he was the #1 RB in the 2025 prep class [4]. His intensity shines in tough conditions—like scoring a snowy 1-yard TD vs. North Dakota [2]—and he showed elite scoring punch with 3 TDs in a single Week 13 game [8]. No reported injury history; his playmaking flair and big-game temperament make him a high-fit RB for teams needing a dynamic, reliable back who thrives under pressure.
