Micah Johnson helped Rich Brooks break through as a part of an exceptional Kentucky defense back in 2007. Nearly 20 years later, he’s still roughing up opponents on the gridiron.

On Sunday, Johnson hoisted the Grey Cup for the third time. The Saskatchewan Roughriders scored 24 unanswered points, then held on for a 25-17 victory over the Montreal Alouettes. It was the first-ever loss as a starter for Alouettes quarterback Davis Alexander, who had three turnovers in the Grey Cup.

“I thought he ran around pretty good,” Roughriders defensive lineman Micah Johnson said.
