Will Johnson Injury: Michigan Expected to Be Without Star CB for Rivalry Game vs. Michigan State

Michigan’s defense will be without one of its top players when it takes on rival Michigan State on Saturday.

Star cornerback Will Johnson is expected to miss the game with a foot injury, according to a report from The Athletic. Johnson is one of the best cornerbacks in the country and his absence will be a big blow to Michigan’s defense.

Johnson has been a key part of Michigan’s success this season.

He has started all 12 games and has recorded 33 tackles, two interceptions, and five pass breakups. Johnson is also a key part of Michigan’s punt return team and has returned two punts for touchdowns this season.

Michigan will need to find a way to replace Johnson’s production against Michigan State.

The Spartans have a talented offense led by quarterback Payton Thorne and running back Kenneth Walker III. Michigan will likely start sophomore cornerback Gemon Green in place of Johnson. Green has played well in a backup role this season and has recorded 17 tackles and two pass breakups.
