Brandon Johnson is a compact, productive Northern Colorado back with touchdown juice
In the 2025 season, Brandon Johnson gave Northern Colorado reliable backfield production, rushing 82 times for 321 yards and 6 touchdowns while adding 8 catches for 66 yards.[1][7] He’s a compact 5-foot-9, 185-pound sophomore with quick-hit scoring ability—his 6 rushing TDs came on a modest workload, which suggests he’s useful in tight spaces and around the goal line rather than as a volume hammer.[1][9] The fit question: if a team wants a sturdy, efficient runner who can finish drives and contribute as a receiver, he’s intriguing; if it wants a true workhorse, the profile is less flashy and more complementary.[1][13]
