ETSU’s Adrian Johnson is a sturdy, north-south RB with flashes of burst
Adrian Johnson is a physical, 6-foot, 244-pound back for ETSU who has flashed efficiency in limited work: in the 2024 season, he carried 3 times for 31 yards against UVA Wise, including a 25-yard run, after logging 53 rushing yards on 14 attempts in the 2022 season and appearing in four games in 2023[1][4]. That size-and-power profile gives him short-yardage upside and a downhill style that can wear on defenses, but his résumé still shows he’s been more of a rotational piece than a featured engine[1][12]. If your team wants a thumper who can punish arm tackles and provide depth, he’s interesting; if you need a high-volume, proven bell cow, the tape and stat line say he’s still making his case[1][4][12].
