Breaking News: Jamon Dumas-Johnson Signs

Jamon Dumas-Johnson is listed as an outside linebacker on 247Sports and is a four-star rated prospect out of St. Frances Academy in Baltimore, Maryland. At 6’2 235 pounds, Dumas-Johnson brings the measurables you would want at linebacker.

Jamon is a great athlete who possesses the size and speed to translate at the college level. He is a strong tackler who reacts to the run well and is a physical player when he makes contact with the ball carrier it is a sure thing that the ball carrier will be put in the dirt.

Jamon’s good open-field tackling resembles former Butkus Award winner Roquan Smith, a current inside linebacker for the Chicago Bears in the NFL.

Jamon translates best as an inside linebacker in the Georgia defense as he has the speed of opening up the hips and run in pass defense. He would also bring the added ability to rush the passer when needed.

Jamon is a big get for the Dawgs as the likely departure of Monty Rice after this season makes inside linebacker a need for the Dawgs as they look to replace a reliable tackler and leader.
