The Birmingham Stallions signed offensive lineman Zack Johnson for the 2024 season on Wednesday.
Zack Johnson is six foot six and weighs 315 pounds. The 26-year-old from Apple Valley, Minnesota, was with the Tennessee Titans in 2023. Johnson played one NFL regular season game for the Tennessee Titans in 2022.
Before Tennessee, Johnson signed with the Green Bay Packers as an undrafted free agent in 2021 and was placed on the practice squad. He would also spend time with the Arizona Cardinals, Denver Broncos, and Baltimore Ravens.
Collegiately, Johnson played five seasons at North Dakota State (2012-16) playing left guard in 54 games for the Bisons. In 2015, he was part of an offensive line that ranked first in the FCS in time of possession (36:38) and third in total first downs (329) while leading the Missouri Valley Football Conference in fewest sacks, and tackles for loss allowed per game.
Johnson helped the Bisons win three FCS National championships. He was named First Team AP All-American in 2016, Second Team All-MVFC in 2013, and played in the 2017 East-West Shrine Game.
