Dolphins Count on Johnson to Fix Corner | Miami Dolphins News

The Miami Dolphins’ cornerback depth is in serious trouble as two key players, Darrell Baker Junior and Storm Duck, start training camp on the physically unable to perform list, leaving the team even thinner at a critical position. With most of last year’s starters gone, rookie first-round pick Chris Johnson is being counted on to make an immediate impact — and he’s already getting reps at all three cornerback spots. Known for his ball skills and versatility, Johnson is seen as the cornerstone of the team’s defensive rebuild, competing with young talent like JuJu Brents and Jason Marshall Junior. The GM believes his instincts and physical tools make him a foundational piece — and the Dolphins are banking on him to be a difference-maker in his rookie season as they try to turn their defense around.
