The Cardinals signed Johnson (hamstring) to his four-year rookie contract Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson was the 47th overall pick in the 2025 Draft back in April. He dealt with a hamstring injury during offseason workouts but is expected to be fine for the start of training camp. Johnson should immediately slide into a starting outside cornerback spot with Arizona.

Johnson is dealing with a hamstring issue but should be ready for the start of training camp, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Arizona coach Jonathan Gannon described Johnson's issue as "a little bit of a tight hamstring," per Drake. The 2025 second-round pick missed the last six games of his collegiate career due to a foot injury and likely fell out of the first round in the draft due to a potential knee issue, so injuries remain a concern. At the same time, Johnson led a strong Michigan secondary in college and picked off nine passes during his career, returning three for scores, so he's expected to play a starting role for the Cardinals if healthy.
