12/05/20 - Dyontae Johnson, rSr/2023, Toledo + More +

This offseason Toledo linebacker Dyontae Johnson knew he wanted to get faster. To accomplish that feat, in addition to a litany of speed drills given to him by the Toledo strength and conditioning staff, Johnson also took up a new hobby: virtual yoga classes. "That's a little out of the ordinary for me," Johnson said. "I've definitely been a stiff athlete my whole life...But I feel like yoga is for everybody. It's a better way to connect yourself and with your body." While Johnson was maybe stiff on the field in the past, throughout his college career he has always been flexible when it comes to learning and his role on the team.

The junior linebacker had to adapt quickly ever since he arrived at the University of Toledo. Over each of the last two seasons, while he didn't start, he played in every single contest. While he made a lot mistakes as an underclassman, Johnson said he was mostly worried about not continuously making the same mistakes. Head coach Jason Candle said Johnson has done a good job of getting "progressively better" in that regard, and especially with utilizing film to help him do so. "He's done a good job of taking mistakes off the video tape and really identifying what his weaknesses are to really put his best foot forward to try to get better," he said. "From a progression standpoint, he's got progressively better from that point in time until now." - Bryan/College Station Eagle
