Tank Johnson, bruising Huskies anchor with NFL-level explosion
Tank Johnson’s UW profile points to a disruptive interior defender whose calling card is power, burst, and backfield chaos; his pro-day style measurables were eye-popping for a defensive tackle, including elite straight-line speed and strong explosiveness. He was a physical, high-motor force at Washington and later became a notable NFL draft pick, which still speaks to his fit as a difference-making DT when leverage and intensity matter. For a team needing an interior tone-setter who can collapse pockets and play with nasty energy, he’s exactly that kind of menace.
