disruptive, downhill Pitt LB with proven backfield production
Kylan Johnson made his name at Pitt as a 6-2, 230-pound linebacker who produced 54 tackles, 10.5 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks and 2 forced fumbles in 2019, earning All-ACC honorable mention[7][6]. His best trait is impact: he plays with an edge, shows pass-rush value from the second level, and has the kind of playmaking profile that can change a drive, not just clean it up[7][6]. He also brought value as a high-character, academic standout and an experienced transfer who adapted quickly, which matters if you want a mature, ready-made fit[7].
