Mr. 4.32 In A Very Telling 12 Minute Interview

andrew johnsonWant to know more about Mr. 4.32?  This is the interview to listen to.  Andrew Johnson recently went on NFL Draft Blitz’s Four Down Territory, a show that has interviewed many of the top draft picks looking to hear their names called this Saturday.  With only a few days left before NFL teams make their decisions on who to draft, Johnson lays it all on the line, talking about how he would grade his college career, his strengths and weaknesses, his team workouts, and much more.

There has been a lot of buzz about Johnson since he ran a 4.32 40-time in front of Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints scouts.  Many wonder if he is the real deal since he had limited playing time in college due to injuries.  There is nothing that Johnson can do at this point to quell those questioners, but this interview definitely says a lot about his determination to make it at the next level.  Listen below!
