The Arizona Cardinals Football Club today announced the signing of Michigan cornerback Will Johnson, the team’s second-round (47th overall) selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, to a four-year contract. The signing took place today at the Dignity Health Arizona Cardinals Training Center in Tempe, AZ.
The Cardinals now have all seven members of their 2025 NFL Draft class under

Johnson (6-2, 194) was a two-time All-American and two-time All-Big Ten selection who appeared in 32 games (21 starts) in three seasons at Michigan. He finished his career with 68 tackles, nine interceptions (three returned for TDs) and 10 passes defensed. His three career interception returns for touchdowns set a new school record at Michigan. In his final two seasons with the Wolverines, Johnson had six interceptions with no TD catches allowed on 478 coverage snaps according to PFF. Johnson was the Defensive MVP in Michigan’s College Football Playoff National Championship game victory over Washington to cap the 2023 season. He was also named a first-team All-American following that 2023 season.
The hold up with second round picks has been about the guaranteed amount in the contracts, and we will know more about Johnson’s later, but for now this is the completion of the 2025 NFL Draft class signings.
