Johnson confidently believes he's on track for All-Pro status. This prestigious accolade, traditionally awarded by the Associated Press since 1940, involves selection of four players per position, split into first and second teams. Other organizations, like the Pro Football Writers Association and The Sporting News, also make selections, but the AP's recognition is the most esteemed.
Focusing more on his performance than his competition, Johnson maintains a low profile off the field, emphasizing his commitment to playing at a top level. With two interceptions and four pass breakups, he's a strong contender, although he recently dropped to sixth in Pro Football Focus' rankings, partly due to Paulson Adebo's standout performance.
Historically, players with at least two interceptions and a higher number of pass breakups have been favored for All-Pro selection. The current landscape shows several cornerbacks outpacing Johnson in interceptions and pass defenses, including DaRon Bland, Paulson Adebo, and Cam Taylor-Britt, among others.
Johnson remains determined, driven by a childhood dream to achieve All-Pro status. He believes his rigorous training and on-field performance will eventually lead to this recognition. With seven more games left, including an upcoming matchup against the Lions, Johnson has opportunities to enhance his stats and strengthen his case for All-Pro selection.
