Johnson returns as the top DB prospect in New York. Playing most of his varsity career at CB, Johnson has elite track speed and good length for the position. I think Johnson shows some traits that could translate to safety, but there is no doubt he gives Iona Prep the best chance in man coverage against some of the elite WRs they will face this season.

Johnson out of Iona Prep is the type of CB prospect that checks all the boxes in his projection to the next level and when you watch the tape and put his athletic metrics on the table it is clear that he is CB1 in this class.
Johnson is a true 5’11 but he has some length to him in the arms. At 170, Johnson still has the frame to add weight and by my best estimation will likely play closer to 180 this season and 190+ in college.
Johnson has the track speed as he is a 2x track all-american and runs a sub 10.9 100m and a 6.61 55m as a 10th grader.
Johnson has good man coverage skills but his athleticism and closing speed stand out on tape and I think his skillset would translate to the safety or corner position at the next level.

Johnson out of Iona Prep was bound to be a name of interest at the Iona Prep showday as he also is a dominant track athlete and sprinter. The CB prospect picked up an offer from Rhode Island and is one of the most athletic defensive back prospects in the entire state.

Another elite member of the Iona Prep secondary. Johnson has been contributing since his freshman year and he had a great junior season at corner. He is a great tackling defensive back and one of the fastest players in the AAA. Johnson is an exciting player who was great in the red zone against bigger receivers. He holds several power five offers such as Boston College and Minnesota. He is one of the top 2025 prospects in the state.

Another elite player in the class of 2025 in the catholic league. Johnson is one of the fastest prospects in the entire state and he earned plenty of attention this offseason. He has offers from Minnesota, Boston College and a few other power five schools. Johnson has been great since his freshman year and what makes him special is how he shows up in big games.
