Nebraska in the running for three-star defensive lineman Josh Johnson

Nebraska football made the top six schools for class of 2027 three-star defensive lineman Josh Johnson. He listed his top six on Wednesday afternoon.

The Florida Gators, Miami Hurricanes, Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, Iowa Hawkeyes, and Wisconsin Badgers also made his top six. Johnson is rated as a three-star recruit in the 247Sports Composite Rankings, and is the 78th overall defensive lineman and player in the state of Florida.

Johnson has been busy on the visit circuit over the past couple of months. He last visited Nebraska on September 20, when the game against the Michigan Wolverines. Before his time in Lincoln, he also visited Syracuse, Florida, and Iowa.

The lineman would be another solid addition to what is a very talented 2027 recruiting class. The class itself ranks seventh overall in the country according to the Rivals Team Rankings.

The Huskers have focused on the defensive line over the last couple of classes. Johnson would be another nice get for a position group that is slowly rounding into form.
