Coaches pleased with Johnson this spring after position switch

Clemson has had a lot of success moving defensive linemen over to the offensive line. Just take Gage Cervenka and Tyler Shatley for example.

Cervenka redshirted as a defensive tackle before switching to the O-line in August 2016. After serving as the backup center in 2017, he earned a starting role at guard (and one spot start at center) in 2018 before starting all 15 games as a senior last season when he was a second-team All-ACC selection.

Shatley, on the other hand, came to Clemson as a fullback but moved to the defensive line in 2010 and later moved to the O-line in the spring of 2012.
