Summary
Antonio Johnson, Jacksonville’s fifth-round safety draft pick, is exploding onto the NFL scene—turning into a full-time starter in 2026 after a breakout 2025 season that included 58 tackles, 2 sacks, and 5 interceptions, including a pick-six. He’s already the top-graded safety in the league by Pro Football Focus. With his rookie deal paying just over $4 million over four years, Johnson is one of the NFL’s biggest steals. If he continues his elite play, he’s poised to land a massive contract—potentially $21–25 million annually—putting him among the league’s highest-paid safeties and transforming his financial future.
