BOCA RATON — Six months after undergoing emergency surgery for blood clots in his arm, Florida Atlantic quarterback De’Andre Johnson has another opportunity to compete for the Owls’ starting quarterback role.
Fully healthy and cleared for action, Johnson will return to the practice field ready, willing, and able on March 20, when the Owls start their second spring camp under Lane Kiffin. The first player to sign under Kiffin and considered by many to be the most notable recruit FAU had ever landed following stays at Florida State and East Mississippi, Johnson completed two of three passes with an interception in last year’s season-opening loss to Navy on Sept.
