Dontae Johnson
Dontae Johnson (born December 1, 1991) is an American former professional football player who was a cornerback in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the NC State Wolfpack and was selected by the San Francisco 49ers in the fourth round of the 2014 NFL draft. He was also a member of the Seattle Seahawks, Buffalo Bills, Arizona Cardinals, Kansas City Chiefs, and Los Angeles Chargers.
Johnson was born in Plainfield, New Jersey and grew up in South Plainfield, New Jersey. He attended South Plainfield High School his freshman year before transferring to The Pennington School. He was selected to the New Jersey all-prep first-team. He had 108 tackles, six interceptions along with three forced fumbles in his senior season. He also played AAU basketball in high school.
During his junior season, Johnson was selected ACC Defensive Back of the Week for his performance against Wake Forest on November 12, 2012. He was invited to the 2014 Senior Bowl as a member of the North team.
Coming out of NC State, Johnson was projected by some NFL draft experts to be a third or fourth round pick, while others projected him to be selected in the fifth or sixth round. He received an invitation to the NFL Combine and completed all of the required combine and positional drills. On March 24, 2014, he chose to participate at NC State's pro day, but opted to only perform positional drills for NFL team representatives and scouts. Johnson was ranked the 25th best cornerback prospect in the draft by NFLDraftScout.com.
The San Francisco 49ers selected Johnson in the fourth round (129th overall) of the 2014 NFL draft. He was the 16th cornerback selected in the draft.
On May 15, 2014, the 49ers signed Johnson to a four-year, $2.62 million contract that includes a signing bonus of $400,544.
He competed with Chris Culliver, Tramaine Brock, Perrish Cox, Chris Cook, Kenneth Acker, and Darryl Morris throughout training camp in 2014 for the job as the starting cornerback. Head coach Jim Harbaugh named Johnson the fifth cornerback on the depth chart, behind veterans Brock, Culliver, Cox, and Chris Cook.
He made his professional regular season debut in the 49ers' season-opener at the Dallas Cowboys and recorded two solo tackles and two pass deflections in their 28–17 victory. On October 13, 2014, Johnson made a tackle, a pass deflection, and made his first career interception after picking off a pass attempt by Austin Davis and returning it for a 20-yard touchdown during a 31–17 win over the St. Louis Rams. During a Week 14 matchup against the Oakland Raiders, Johnson collected a season-high seven combined tackles as the 49ers lost 24–13. On December 14, 2014, he earned his first career start and recorded four combined tackles and deflected a pass in a 17–7 loss at the Seattle Seahawks. He finished his rookie season with 34 combined tackles (26 solo), six pass deflections, an interception, and a touchdown in three starts and 16 games. The 49ers and Harbaugh mutually parted ways after they finished with an 8–8 season in 2014.
