Defenders Top-off their Offense with “Touchdown Trae” Johnson
March 20, 2012
Tulsa, OK The Oklahoma Defenders officially announced today the signing of former University of Tulsa Hurricane "Touchdown Trae" Johnson. Fox23 News in Tulsa made mention of this remarkable addition to the Oklahoma Defenders roster on the Monday night news. Johnson's quickness, distinguished hands, and soaring leaping abilities will definitely be utilized in the fast-paced indoor football game.
Johnson played high school football at South Grand Prairie, Texas prior to becoming a Hurricane in 2007. As a true freshman at TU, he earned the nickname "Touchdown Trae" Johnson when his first two career receptions led to touchdowns! His collegiate career ended in 2010 with an impressive 2,372 yards, including 27 touchdowns on 142 receptions.
Johnson notes his mother Yolanda Franklin, and his grandmother, Johnnie Johnson, have been influential in motivating him to accomplish his goals. He remarks, "This is a great opportunity for me to improve in a different league where the speed is turned up." He is also geared up to bring an APFL Championship to the City of Tulsa!
"Minor league pro football is a weird universe filled with bounced checks, unpaid bills, empty promises, out-right lies, empty arenas, endless women, endless booze, occasionally drugs, endless trips on rented buses to towns on the outskirts of the Big Time and, for one night a week, a football game." -- Bill Shea
