Expert Analysis
Michael Huntley | Prep Redzone Scout
Johnson threw for 198 yards per game with 22 touchdowns and just five interceptions for a Santa Margarita team that won the Open Division State championship.
He gets the ball out on time and has nice touch on the deeper throws. Johnson got better as the season went on and was very good in huge games during the playoffs. Johnson goes through his progressions patiently but doesn’t get the ball out late. He is committed to Tulane.

Johnson completed 17 of 20 passes for 247 yards with four touchdowns for Santa Margarita in its Open Division championship win over De La Salle. A lot of his yardage was on yards after the catch, but Johnson’s timing was excellent and he had a great understanding of Santa Margarita’s offense.

Johnson completed 16 of 25 passes for 386 yards with four touchdowns in Santa Margarita’s dominant 42-7 win over Centennial in the Division 1 championship game at The Rose Bowl.
A lot of his yards were on yards after the catch from Santa Margarita’s top receiver, but he threw a nice ball on a seam route to his tight end early in the game. He has good arm strength and knows when to fire the ball into spaces and when to put air under the ball.

Read EvaluationMichael Huntley | Prep Redzone Scout
Johnson averaged 251 yards per game for Buchholz High in Florida last season with 29 touchdowns and 12 interceptions in 14 games.
He can spin it with anyone in the class and has some serious zip on the shorter throws. Johnson consistently gets the ball out on time and hits receivers right when they get out of their breaks. He was excellent at the Battle at the Beach despite missing his best receivers and is committed to Tulane.
