Larry Johnson’s Son Tony Johnson Joins Ohio State’s Staff As Analyst/Advisor

Another member of the Johnson family has joined Ohio State’s staff.

Former Penn State wide receiver Tony Johnson, whose father is Ohio State defensive line coach Larry Johnson, has joined Ohio State’s staff as an analyst, an Ohio State spokesperson confirmed to Eleven Warriors. Johnson is listed as an analyst/advisor on his social media profiles.

Larry Johnson revealed that his son had joined Ohio State’s staff during his speech at Monday night’s National Football Foundation Columbus Chapter awards banquet, where the elder Johnson was the recipient of this year’s Ohio Gold Award.

“It’s kind of cool to see him walking down the hallway and we’re in the same building,” Larry Johnson said.
