Week 17 presented Will Johnson with the most demanding assignment of his young NFL career, a matchup that served as both a stress test, and a window into what the future may hold.
Countering Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, and Tee Higgins is no small feat, yet the film, and underlying analytics painted a picture of high level corner play from start to finish.
On the day, Johnson was targeted four times and allowed four receptions, but context matters.
Against Chase, one of the most dangerous receivers in football after the catch, Johnson surrendered just two catches for 26 yards.
