He played tackle in college, but some scouts believe he could transition to guard in the NFL due to his quick feet and ability to pull in the run game.

Johnson Jr. possesses excellent athleticism for his size, with great speed and lateral agility. He has excellent footwork and is comfortable in both zone and power blocking schemes. He excels at engaging defenders at the point of attack and maintaining his leverage throughout the play.

While he is an impressive athlete, Johnson Jr. also has the strength to match. He is able to anchor against bull rushes and has the power to move defenders off the line of scrimmage in the run game. He is also known for his intelligence, both on and off the field, which allows him to make quick decisions and communicate effectively with his teammates.

Some scouts have compared Johnson Jr. to former Dallas Cowboys lineman Tyron Smith due to his combination of athleticism, power, and intelligence. Johnson Jr. is widely considered to be one of the top offensive linemen in the 2022 NFL Draft and is projected to be a first-round pick.
