North Carolina continues picking up needed commitments from defensive linemen in the transfer portal, as Arizona tackle Isaiah Johnson announced Sunday he will play for the Tar Heels.

At 6-foot-1 and 322 pounds, Johnson is solely an interior lineman who played 170 snaps in 10 games last season for the Wildcats recording 2 sacks and 7 hurries. He finished the campaign with 9 tackles.

Johnson has played 181 snaps in his career and has two years of eligibility remaining.

He fills a huge need for the Tar Heels, who also got a commitment from former Florida DT D’antra Robinson on Saturday and Penn State’s Joseph Mupoyi earlier in the week.
