Coming from Gary, Indiana and playing at the University of Toledo, wide receiver Jon’Vea Johnson has developed an underdog mentality.
As an undrafted free agent with the Dallas Cowboys, Johnson believes that allows him to play a free-wheeling style that highlights his strengths on the football field.
“I have a grinding mentality,” Johnson said in a video interview on the Cowboys website. “... I already have come from nothing, so I already have that chip on my shoulder to come in and show them what I can do. I might not get a lot of publicity, but I play to my advantage.
