Auburn lands 2020 4-star WR over ‘Bama, LSU

The Tigers just landed a big commitment.

That’s going to be a big boom from Gus Malzahn.

On Friday, Auburn received the commitment from 4-star wide receiver Malcolm Johnson Jr. over Alabama, LSU and others. The receiver will reclassify and be part of the 2020 class.

From 247Sports:

Strong frame with good size. Elite speed. Ran 55 meters in 6.26 seconds. Tough to jam at line because of physical strength and speed intimidation. Shows good hand technique and is difficult to re-route. Nearly impossible to catch in open field. Has some elusiveness. Good ball skills. Effective on short routes and deep. Shows ability to high-point ball in traffic. Accelerates well. Gets out of breaks with purpose. Physically ready for college. Needs to work on flexibility getting into route. Becoming more elusive in tight spaces would significantly enhance game. Multi-year starter at high level program. Day 3 NFL draft potential.
