Goodwin is 6’3, 190 lbs according to media releases from the Pennsylvania college. Johnson was new to the Vulcans roster in 2013 after transferring from Fairmont State. He only started in the last one or two games of the 2013 season and finished with 11 receptions, 126 yards, and 1 touchdown. He also returned 1 kick for 25 yards last year.
Steelers scouts were in attendance at his Pro Day, where he ran a 4.41 40 yard dash, and posted an impressive 40 inch vertical jump. That would have tied for 2nd highest at the national combine. Goodwin wasn’t invited to the NFL Scouting Combine, but he did participate in one of the regional combines. Here’s the video of his performance.
