Theo Johnson does fit the Bengals spread rpo as the H and F.
That may be what a depth chart may say but film would not totally support this. If you watch film both Warren and Johnson virtually mirrored the play of each other. Both frequently lined up in the H-Back role in the backfield and they both lined up inline. Penn State ran a ton of 2 TE looks and often both were lined up on each end of the O line. Go back and watch the Michigan game. Johnson may have spent more time in the Y than Warren did.
Johnson is a very experienced inline blocker.
