In light of a recent injunction, NC State fifth-year senior cornerback Jamel Johnson is back eligible to play for the Wolfpack, according to his agency.

Johnson was included in a filing in Indiana where a state court ruled for the players.

The Temple transfer started 10 games for the Wolfpack last season, recording 27 total tackles, one tackle for loss, and five passes defended.

Johnson, who has been with the team after previously being deemed eligible, has yet to play this year as he waited for a ruling.
