My final defensive lineman to make this team is Austin Johnson Austin Johnson 5'10" | 220 lbs | DL North Laurel | 2024 State KY from North Laurel. Johnson caught my attention last season and continued to impress as a senior. He lines up at defensive end where he has been very impressive against the run. Johnson explodes out of his stance and uses his strength and speed to fight through and blow right by offensive linemen to get to the ball carrier to make the tackle before they can get going. He finished the regular season with 86 tackles and four tackles for loss. Austin also showed the ability to use his speed to blow by opposing offensive tackles off the edge as a pass rusher, finishing the regular season with seven sacks. Johnson currently holds an offer from Union College and I  wouldn’t be surprised to see more come his way as he has the talent to play at the next level.
