When Michigan football landed a commitment from JD Johnson back in December, it didn’t make a lot of waves because he was only a three-star quarterback.
Yet, people in the know said that Johnson was a rising star and it looks like those predictions were correct. For starters, Johnson got a huge upgrade in the 247 recruiting rankings, going from a three-star to a four-star and moving into the top 300 overall.
Among quarterbacks, 247 sports ranks the Michigan football commit as the No. 12 pro-style passer and when you watch his highlights when he got the chance to play behind 2019 five-star Spencer Rattler, you can see why schools are so high on him.
