Johnson on the spot: Third-string quarterback finds unexpected spotlight

Not long after talking with Baylor sophomore quarterback Chris Johnson, it became evident that he’s the ultimate team player.

His humility and willingness to sacrifice for the betterment of the team are what make him invaluable, teammates say.

Johnson doesn’t take on an egotistical demeanor, despite the fact that he’s the leader of the No. 1 offense in college football at the moment.

Instead, Johnson is a player who remains grateful for the situation he’s in and cherishes every opportunity to help the Bears reach a potential Sugar Bowl berth.

The 20-year-old from Bryan credits his upbringing for his unique selflessness and team-player attitude.
