His legal name is Jeremy Johnson but goes by Lane as a tribute to his mother. Starred in track as a Texas prep. Saw action in all 12 games in 2008, recording 35 tackles, eight pass breakups and one interception with two tackles for loss. Totaled 21-2-0 in nine contests in ’09 and managed 33-9-1 while playing in all 11 games (four starts) in ’10. Wore jersey No. 24 prior to senior season. Made 10 starts at cornerback in ’11 and logged 44-4-2 with one tackle for loss and one sack. Had nine career kickoff returns for 174 yards (19.3-yard average). Named Defensive MVP at the Casino Del Sol College All-Star Game after making eight tackles and breaking up a pass. 

Has nice length. Thin ankles. Quick feet. Has man-cover skills to stay in the hip pocket. Did not look out of place when he stepped up in class (see LSU and SMU games). Fluid mover. Willing hitter. 

Has small hands. Only a 11⁄2-year starter. Press technique needs work. Average ball skills and production — only four career interceptions. Did not regularly face top competition. 

Lean, high-cut, long-levered, underdeveloped corner who showed intriguing physicality against LSU and in postseason all-star competition and has shown enough upside to warrant interest as a No. 4 or No. 5 corner and special-teams contributor.
