Michigan Wolverines junior cornerback Will Johnson has declared for the NFL draft, he announced on social media Wednesday.

Johnson is the No. 2 prospect in ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper’s latest Big Board rankings.

Johnson played in only six games this year because of a foot injury but still returned interceptions for touchdowns in wins over Fresno State and USC.

Michigan defensive tackle Mason Graham also declared for the draft this week. He’s projected to be a high first-round pick as well.
