Expert Analysis
Connor Jackson | Prep Redzone Scout
- t
- Scat-back
- Pieces way through line of scrimmage by combo’ing the patience to squeeze blocks and the twitchiness to create his own yards.
- Hits openings with no hesitation and quickly opens up.
- Accelerates to top speed quickly and is capable of maintaining it downfield, running away from the defense.
- Outstanding contact balance for size. Good center of gravity and stays squared at contact. Can create extension with stiff-arm and recovers nicely after tackle attempts.
- Offers playmaking ability as a returner and as a receiver.
- Will fit best as a change of pace back with a scheme that gets him ball in space.

Read EvaluationCJ Marable | Prep Redzone Scout
Johnson has very good size for the position and is an above-average overall athlete. Johnson is a patient running back who understands how to press the line of scrimmage while waiting for his blockers to get to their landmarks and wait for an opening. He displays outstanding vision and instincts as a runner as he naturally finds gaps in the line of scrimmage and consistently runs to open space when he reaches the second level. He is able to locate cutback lanes and has the ability to cut back across the line of scrimmage to hit the hole.
