In his freshman season, Dumas-Johnson was still a key contributor, appearing in 14 of Georgia’s 15 contests. Dumas-Johnson collected 22 tackles, two sacks and an interception as a freshman.

As a recruit, he was the No. 240 overall prospect in the 2021 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He also ranked as the nation’s No. 28 linebacker and the No. 11 recruit in Maryland.
