| Austin Johnson has all the measureables to be a very solid middle linebacker with great size, good strength, and leadership on the field. Does not dominate in the run game, especially on outside runs, and gets caught up in offensive linemen who get into the second level quickly. His defensive line hurts the ability for him to run free, but there are times where he sees the hole and explodes through it. |
| Biography: |
| As a junior, Johnson finished with 117 tackles and six sacks en route to all-district and all-state honors and was the top vote-getter of all the linebackers on the all-state squad. |
