Georgia great Charles Johnson recalls incredible story from day he was drafted into the NFL

Georgia great Charles Johnson was a punishing defensive end for the Carolina Panthers for a decade. Between 2007 and 2017, Johnson racked up 67.5 sacks, which ranks second all-time in Panthers history.

Before that, he was a Georgia Bulldog, and remains one to this day, still sporting the red & black.

At Georgia, Johnson burst onto the scene his junior season after a solid sophomore year. During his third year, though, he was an absolute star, recording 9.5 sacks and 19 tackles for a loss. He also added 4 career forced fumbles and 1 touchdown in 2005.
