After a year away, Snaxx Johnson is back in Waco as the dynamic
playmaker returns to the Bears defensive secondary group for this fall.

Nicknamed for his love of snacks, Johnson jumped onto the scene as a redshirt freshman in 2021 and took another leap in 2022 when
he started in all 12 games for the Green & Gold.

In his previous two seasons at BU, Snaxx played in 19 games, racking
up 20 tackles and five pass deflections, along with a forced fumble.
