He displays solid initial quickness off the LOS, creating leverage with good hand placement, timing, extension, and lower body power. Johnson can either bull rush and put pressure into the pocket or shed the block quickly and make a play at the LOS or in the backfield.

Hatcher possesses a good read-and-react ability, coupled with good foot speed, lateral agility, and change of direction to attack the ball, highlighting his mental processing skills. He is an athletic linebacker with a good feel for zone coverage, effectively securing underneath and communicating with his teammates on defense. Against the run, he works sideline to sideline, diagnosing plays, staying square, shedding blockers, and quickly making stops in the backfield or at the line of scrimmage.
