The second-year safety left a big impression in his rookie year.
In a little over two months, the Jacksonville Jaguars will kick off the 2024 season in hopes of shedding away the nightmare that was 2023.In the Jaguars' pursuit of an AFC South title and a spot in the playoffs, the Jaguars will need the core of their roster to help propel them past the Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, Tennessee Titans, and the rest of the opponents on their schedule.
We will attempt to answer that question in two series. One series will begin in July, while the other will continue until Week 1.While the Jaguars' 2023 draft class likely got some unfair early criticism, there is no denying the Jaguars may have found a Day 3 gem in their seventh player picked out of a 13-man class. With first-round offensive tackle Anton Harrison manning a starting role on offense, Johnson ended up playing the second-most significant snaps out of all the Jaguars rookies.
Where Johnson will play in 2024 appears to be the bigger question. The most likely fit and outcome seems to be at safety, replacing former starter Rayshawn Jenkins across from Andre Cisco. Johnson has experience in the slot and could factor into the competition for that role as well, but Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said at the owners meetings that they envisioned new defensive back Darnell Savage in the slot.
