Deandre Johnson is one player that has seen significant snaps in each of Jeremy Pruitt’s first two seasons at Tennessee, but has yet to truly break out as an edge rusher.

Johnson’s 2018 and 2019 numbers are similar, with the Florida native posting 13 tackles, 4.5 TFLs and 2.5 sacks in 2019. The former 3-star was a Butch Jones signee in 2017, and has one more season to make a consistent impact in Derrick Ansley’s Tennessee defense.
