Recruiting Story

A long-time Michigan football lean, it took until the summer for Johnson to officially make his pledge. But it was something of a drama-free recruitment for the Wolverines.

First-year outlook

Depending on the transfer portal and his offseason development, Johnson could be an immediate contributor in year one as he has all the tools and skills be be a first-year player.

Notes

• Committed July 4, 2025

• Also plays basketball

Scouting report

Here's the scouting report from 247Sports' Andrew Ivins:

• Versatile receiver with a well-rounded game that can be positioned around the formation as he has the size to win on the outside and the agility to separate on the inside.

• Limber and sudden, which allows him to bend around defenders and quickly find space at the short and intermediate levels.

• Narrow in the shoulders for someone pushing 6-foot-3 and is far from a true power forward at the catch point, but can play above opponent’s shoulder pads with his bounce, timing and coordination.

• Sets himself up for RAC opportunities with his burst and will extend plays with his vision and tempo as a ball carrier.

• Can be more of a body catcher and needs to get more consistent with his hands, but can still make his fair share of acrobatic grabs.

• Projects as a potential multi-year starter and a possible impact player at the Power Four level that can settle in as a trusted option in the huddle. Mature game could push him into the rotation early.
