Alonzo Johnson's Legacy Lives On | Panama City Beach News

Rutherford High School honored its football legend Alonzo Johnson by retiring his number 44 jersey last night at Tommy Oliver Stadium — a powerful tribute to a star who dominated from high school through the NFL. A standout athlete in the late 70s and early 80s, Johnson earned all-state honors before excelling at Florida, where he became a two-time All-American and All-SEC defensive powerhouse.

At just 60, Johnson’s legacy lives on — now forever tied to that retired jersey, ensuring no one else ever wears it again.
