TCU lands graduate LB transfer Jawuan Johnson | ESPN
This is a huge get for TCU, as Patterson was just speaking after the spring game about the lack of depth at linebacker.
A third-team All-MAC selection last season, Johnson recorded 98 tackles, including 18 for loss, and had five interceptions and five forced fumbles for NIU. He tied for the MAC lead in forced fumbles and tied for second in interceptions while ranking fourth in tackles for loss. Born in East St. Louis, Illinois, Johnson played high school football in Texas and wanted to play his final season closer to his family. After deciding to leave Northern Illinois, he reached out to TCU cornerback Jeff Gladney, a high school teammate, who connected him to the Frogs coaches.

Johnson was a monster for NIU, and he steps into a good situation for a grad transfer at TCU.
This past season, Johnson started all 13 games for the Huskies. He led the team with five interceptions and eight passes defensed. His 98 tackles were second on the team, as were his 18 tackles for loss. He totaled four sacks, which were third on the squad.
