(4) Daje Johnson

The former Texas RB returned to Austin for another try at his Texas Pro Day.

The speedster grabbed a summer roster spot with the Atlanta Falcons after last year’s NFL Draft, but he did not make the roster.

Johnson returned to Pro Day looking in great shape and he showed off his amazing speed and athleticism for all 32 NFL scouts.

Like the other players not named D’Onta Foreman, though, Johnson is simply looking to get a tryout with an NFL team. We’ll see if another NFL team takes a chance on Johnson after he impressed at the Pro Day.
