While Jaylon Johnson is a good player in general, his best scheme fit would be a Cover-2 or Cover-3 defense, where he can play off-man or zone coverage.
Immediate impact starter outside, with the potential to develop into a Pro Bowl caliber lockdown corner.
Man-heavy press schemes where his recovery speed and mirroring issues are consistently tested downfield.
Johnson's size and physicality are assets in zone coverage, allowing him to reroute receivers and make plays on the ball, but his long speed could be an issue against vertical threats in man coverage.
Selected #50 overall in Round 2 of the 2020 NFL Draft by Chicago Bears out of Utah.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
