UCF’s old-school tight end with NFL pedigree
Darcy Johnson was a dependable, big-bodied UCF tight end who flashed as both a receiver and special-teams contributor; in his UCF career, he played in 48 games with 35 starts, caught 81 passes for 919 yards and 6 touchdowns, and even added 14 tackles on special teams. He was praised by UCF as a leader and academic standout, and his profile suggests a player with toughness, versatility, and a team-first edge—exactly the kind of glue guy coaches love. If you want reliability, maturity, and production with a little extra grit, he’s a strong fit.
