Furman’s Cortez Johnson: veteran cover man with verified speed and ball skills
In the 2011 season, Cortez Johnson was a senior cornerback for Furman who had split time in the starting role, totaled 22 tackles, 1 tackle for loss, 2 pass breakups, and 1 fumble recovery, and was described by Furman as being in the mix for a starting job because of his impressive spring work and competitive edge[2]. He also brought legit athletic juice—career notes list a 10.9 in the 100m and a 6.85 60m—so he fits as a quick, instinctive DB with experience and grit rather than flashy hype[2][3].
