Johnson ran for 2,494 yards in his three seasons at Auburn, including 1,391 yards in 2017 when he was named the SEC’s Offensive Player of the Year. He also ran for 18 touchdowns last season (he had 20 total) and tallied 34 TDs in his Auburn career.
He also totaled 11 career games with at least 100 rushing yards — eight of those occurred last season.
Now, he has his first 100-yard game as an NFL running back.
Congratulations, Kerryon. Detroit fans are going to love you.
