“He Really Found Something He Loved” — Who DuJuan Johnson Was & His All American Tribute, Explained

A DuJuan Johnson All American tribute screen was shown during a season six episode of the hit football drama series, causing many of his to wonder who he is. Inspired by real-life football player Spencer Paysinger, All American follows a high school football star from South Los Angeles recruited to play for Beverly Hills High. While Paysinger made his name in the NFL, this is more of a fictional series influenced by events from the actual player’s life, with a fictional character named Spencer James (Daniel Ezra) as the stand-in for Paysinger.
