He's led his <a href="https://www.maxpreps.com/ga/canton/sequoyah-chiefs/">Sequoyah</a> team to two big playoff wins so far and will hope to do it again in round three against Coffee.

The sleeper South Georgia passer brings above-average arm strength, he's mobile, and consistently puts his team in a position to win. He's thrown for 2,315 yards and 25 touchdowns this season along with just under 200 rushing yards and six touchdown runs. Against Rome in round two, Johnson threw for 181 yards and two touchdowns. Johnson and the Yellow Jackets face Langston Hughes in round three.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1560860"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6744921646822"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A big, powerful quarterback who is one of the very best in the 2025 class not only in South Georgia, but across the state. The 6-foot-4 220-pounder has thrown and run through defenses all season long for the mighty Lee County Trojans. The Georgia Southern commitment has thrown for right at 2,200 yards and 26 touchdowns while rushing for 1,132 yards and 28 touchdowns. He accounted for seven touchdowns in a round two win over East Paulding and is hoping to do something similar in the third round against Sprayberry.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["338659"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6744b472965d8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the state's top quarterbacks for the last several years now, this Miami commitment is hoping to lead the mighty Milton Eagles to a second-consecutive state championship this season in his final season. An accurate quarterback with exceptional ball placement, Nickel is a leader and a winner. He's thrown for 2,706 yards and 31 touchdowns this season and coming off a big round two performance against Dutchtown where he threw for 243 yards and three touchdowns. Nickel and the Eagles host Houston County on Friday night.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["321465"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6744b47296627"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the very best quarterbacks across the state, Hill is a current Memphis commitment and a multi-year starter for Houston County and is close to completing his incredible high school career. The big, strong-armed quarterback has been incredibly productive over the last several years and is having a giant senior season so far, throwing for 3,626 yards and 44 touchdowns this season. He's been lights out and will have to bring his very best against a talented Milton defense. Look for Hill to air it out and give his all on Friday night.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
