Michigan freshman defensive back Will Johnson is the cover boy for The Wolverine Magazine’s 2022 Recruiting Issue, which Wolverine fans can preorder until Feb. 14. Fans can continue ordering the magazine after that date, but it may take longer to ship. Head to TheWolverineOnDemand.com or you can buy one at any M Den location.
An early enrollee, Johnson promoted the Michigan recruiting magazine and has been a part of other Name, Image and Likeness deals since becoming a college athlete at the beginning of the year.
“NIL has been good,” the five-star Michigan freshman told TheWolverine.com. “I have a good support system to help me out. I have a lawyer and sports marketing guy that helps me with NIL. He looks over all my contracts and deals. Him and my family help me focus on what I have to focus on. They handle all of that. I do everything I need to do it. It’s pretty easy. Obviously, it’s great for me. I get to make money now and do all that, so I’m happy about it.”

Quote Of The Day
“I had mixed feelings about it before the game because if you storm the court, it means you aren’t expected to win. We felt like we had a really good shot out there to win the game. Felt like a couple of adjustments on defense that we didn’t do in the first game led to them getting away from us. Coming into this game, we all felt really confident in ourselves and in the game plan. But shoot, if they are going to storm the court I may as well in get in there too.”
