Antonio Johnson To See Action As Box Safety
Jacksonville Jaguars rookie safety Antonio Johnson was Dane Brugler's second-ranked safety and 70th-ranked player overall with a second-/third-round grade, and the Jaguars were able to get him in the fifth round of this year's NFL draft with the 160th overall pick. Johnson fills a big need in the team's secondary and should see plenty of action in his rookie season in 2023 as a box safety. The Texas A&M product only had one interception in his collegiate career, which probably means he won't be much of an IDP option for fantasy managers, but he plays with plenty of speed. The 21-year-old will likely compete with Andrew Wingard and Daniel Thomas for the team's third safety spot this summer at training camp.
