Tulsa's Josh Johnson spoke with JustinM_NFL about his final campaign as a Golden Hurricane, his favorite route to run, why he feels like he's not getting enough credit throughout the pre-draft process, and so much more. FrontOffice33 | NFLDraft
Don't sleep on Tulsa's Josh Johnson. The former transfer from Iowa State got consistently better throughout a solid three-year tenure at Tulsa. In 2021, Johnson enjoyed a career-best breakout campaign by totaling 83 receptions for 1,114 yards and six touchdowns.
JM: You exploded in 2021 by recording career-highs in receptions and receiving yards while matching your career-high in touchdowns . What allowed you to take that step forward this past season? JJ: I had a great week of practice leading up to that game. I was definitely ready for that challenge. It was a homecoming game so I knew there was going to be a big crowd in attendance. I put in a lot of extra work during the week leading up to that one. By the time game day arrived, I was really confident and fully ready to go. I was able to get my first few catches and touches toward the end of the second quarter going into halftime.
JJ: I like to look at myself as the ultimate competitor. I welcome all opportunities to compete against the best players in the nation. I found out that every single receiver in attendance skipped on the opportunity to participate in the bench press, and I saw that as an opportunity I could take full advantage of. I knew I had consistently put up 12 reps during my pre-combine training process. I felt like 12 would be a good number for my size.
Once I was able to learn those coverages, I became capable of reacting in the middle of the play and doing those things you’re talking about. The game began slowing down for me. Us slot guys, we’re often the shiftiest players on the field. We get in and out of breaks efficiently. I feel like coaches can move us around, put us on the outside and let us run a 20-yard comeback route. We can run it correctly however the coach wants us to run it because we’re students of the game. You gotta’ have some special talents to play in the slot.
