Rodney Johnson Jr.'s injury update is the exact boost Louisville desperately needed

Louisville football has a relatively minor injury report as the Cardinals prepare for James Madison, but fans are keeping an eye on a few key players. The Cardinals' returning tight end, Nate Kurisky, and offensive tackle, Trevonte Sylvester, missed Louisville's 2025 season opener, and Brohm gave an update on both this afternoon.

However, the player every fan is holding their breath on is Rodney Johnson Jr. The transfer cornerback suffered an ankle injury in the Cardinals' home opener and never returned, as Louisville was dominating at that point in the game.

Jeff Brohm finally gave a crucial update on Johnson, and the update has Louisville fans finally exhaling and taking that deep breath.
