Anthony Johnson brings size, early production, and linebacker versatility to Delaware State
In the 2025 season, Anthony Johnson was a 6-foot-3, 235-pound junior linebacker for Delaware State who logged 4 total tackles in his first game action and is listed as an active defender for the Hornets[2][5]. His appeal is the frame and linebacker build that give him legitimate run-stopping upside, plus the kind of versatility that can fit multiple defensive looks[2][3]. He is still early in his college résumé, so the real question is ceiling: if he pairs his size with consistent snap-to-snap urgency, he could become a useful fit for a defense that wants physicality and downhill play[2][6].
