Will Johnson shows his knack for big plays again

Michigan football star Will Johnson didn't have a perfect night. He got beat down the field for a big pass play and Fresno State wasn't afraid to get after the lockdown corner.

It's just surprising whenever Johnson gives up an explosive play and he did in the fourth quarter. Yet, Johnson also has a knack for making a big play at just the right time.

Johnson was huge in the win over Ohio State in 2022. He intercepted a pass against the Buckeyes in 2023 and also had a key interception in the national championship game.

Last night, with Michigan football up 13 and Fresno State near the end zone, Johnson jumped a screen pass and returned it 86 yards for a touchdown to effectively end the game.

It was yet another play to add to what's becoming a legendary highlight reel.
