Texas A&M RB LJ Johnson Jr. enters transfer portal

Texas A&M RB LJ Johnson Jr. of Cypress (TX) announced Sunday afternoon that he would be entering the transfer portal. 

The 5-foot-10, 210 pounder sent a message to On3 regarding his entrance into the portal:

I would first like to thank God for allowing me to play college football at the highest level. I would also like to thank Coach Jimbo Fisher and his staff for believing in me and providing me with an opportunity to play the game I love.

 I will forever cherish my time spent in College Station and I’m truly blessed for all of the relationships that were developed during my time here. Aggieland and the 12th man are amazing. 

Thank you to all my family and friends who supported me during this process. 

After extensive prayer and discussion with my family, I’ve decided to enter the transfer portal.
