News

  • Let go by Big Blue

    The Giants cut Johnson from the practice squad Wednesday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Johnson last appeared for the Giants in Week 4 against the Cowboys, during which he played 15 snaps (seven on offense, eight on special teams) and did not record a stat. The veteran fullback will look to join a team in need of blocking out of the backfield.

  • Returns to practice squad

    Johnson reverted to the Giants' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Analysis: Johnson was elevated to the active roster for the third time this season ahead of Thursday's 20-15 loss to the Cowboys, failing to record any stats while playing seven snaps on offense and eight snaps with the special-teams unit. The fullback will now have to be signed to the active roster in order to appear in another game with the Giants this year.

  • Bumped to active roster

    Johnson was elevated by the Giants from their practice squad for Thursday's game against the Cowboys, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Johnson has already suited up twice for the team this season in Week 2 and Week 3, seeing a combined five snaps on offense and not accumulating any counting stats. He'll likely primarily be limited to special teams against Dallas on TNF.

  • Back with Big Blue

    The Giants signed Johnson to their practice squad Wednesday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: The Giants released Johnson on Tuesday after he played 20 total snaps (two offensive and 18 on special teams) during the team's Week 3 win over the Browns, but he has since returned to Big Blue's practice squad. Expect the 29-year-old to continue bouncing between the Giants' practice squad and active roster, primarily contributing on special teams as the season progresses.

  • Let go by Giants

    The Giants released Johnson on Tuesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Johnson has been and up down between the Giants' active roster and practice squad since the end of training camp, and it's possible that the 29-year-old running back could stick around with Big Blue. Johnson has played 36 snaps (31 on special teams, five on offense) across two games with the Giants this season and has not accrued a carry or tackle over that span.

  • Inks to active roster

    The Giants signed Johnson to the active roster on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Johnson spent time with New York throughout the offseason and earned an initial spot on the team's practice squad, though he was cut on Friday. After the Giants' loss to the Vikings in Week 1, though, it looks like the team is exploring some schematic changes that could make an experienced fullback valuable. That could foreshadow the running game being leaned on versus Washington on the road on Sunday.

  • No longer with New York

    The Giants cut Johnson from their practice squad Friday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

    Analysis: Johnson didn't make New York's 53-man roster out of training camp, but he was signed to the team's practice squad and then moved up to the active roster shortly thereafter. However, the fullback was subsequently moved back to the practice squad and has now parted ways with the Giants. Johnson could be an attractive option for another team's practice squad or even an option for an active roster, as he has plenty of NFL experience after having played in 63 regular-season games over the past four…read more

  • Back to practice squad

    Johnson signed with the Giants' practice squad Monday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Analysis: Johnson initially made New York's 53-man roster but was released from the team Saturday to make room for the re-signing of Adoree' Jackson. The 29-year-old will now have the opportunity to work his way back to the active roster, likely when injuries arise as the season progresses.

  • Joins active roster

    The Giants elevated Johnson to their active roster Thursday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Johnson signed with the Giants' practice squad Wednesday after failing to make the team's initial 53-man roster Tuesday, and he's already been elevated to the New York's active roster. In a corresponding move, the Giants placed center Austin Schlottmann on injured reserve.

  • Returns to Big Blue

    Johnson signed with the Giants' practice squad Wednesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Johnson failed to make the Giants' 53-man roster after signing with the team earlier in August, but New York has decided to bring back the 29-year-old as a practice squad player. The five-year NFL veteran appeared in 13 regular-season games for the Raiders in 2023, recording one reception for 12 yards while also playing 138 special-teams snaps.

  • Let go by Giants

    Johnson was released by the Giants on Tuesday.

    Analysis: Johnson signed with New York on Aug. 16 after spending the last two seasons with the Raiders. However, the 29-year-old was unable to catch on as either a fullback or tight end during his short time with the Giants, leaving him as one of the odd men out on final cutdown day. Johnson totaled six touches while appearing in 30 regular-season games with Las Vegas.

  • Signed by Giants

    Johnson was signed by the Giants on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The fullback/tight end will play for a new team in the 2024 season after spending the last two years with Las Vegas, bringing in six catches for 22 yards in that span. With the tight-end pecking order still undetermined for New York, Johnson could compete for a part in the team's passing game, or he could become a staple fullback blocker for running back Devin Singletary.

  • Back with Las Vegas

    The Raiders signed Johnson off their practice squad Friday.

    Analysis: The lead blocker appeared in the first eight games of the season for Las Vegas but was cut after coach Josh McDaniels was fired midway through the year. He eventually signed back with the Raiders' practice squad and has played 34 offensive snaps over the last two weeks, blocking for Zamir White.

  • Back to practice squad

    Johnson reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Tuesday.

    Analysis: Johnson joined the active roster ahead of the team's 20-14 win over the Chiefs on Monday, failing to record any stats while playing 19 snaps on offense and 14 with the special-teams unit. The fullback will now wait for his next shot to be elevated for another game with Las Vegas.

  • Elevated to active roster

    The Raiders elevated Johnson to the active roster Sunday.

    Analysis: This is the third time the Raiders have promoted Johnson from the practice squad since signing him Nov. 21. He's played 46 snaps over his last two games and has split his time between offense and special teams without recording a stat.

  • Heads back to practice squad

    The Raiders reverted Johnson to the practice squad Friday.

    Analysis: Johnson saw extended playing time in Thursday's blowout win over the Chargers as he played 25 snaps -- 15 on offense and 10 on special teams -- without recording a stat. It was his second time being called up since joining the Raiders' practice squad Nov. 21.

  • Back to practice squad

    Johnson reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday.

    Analysis: Johnson saw playing time on both offense and special teams in Sunday's loss to the Vikings, and he managed to record a tackle while in punt coverage. The 28-year-old is still eligible to be elevated two more times this season.

  • Moves to roster

    Johnson was elevated from the practice squad Saturday by the Raiders.

    Analysis: Johnson last saw the field Week 8, and he has recorded only a single reception for 12 yards on the season. It is unlikely the fullback will be utilized as anything more than a special teams piece this week.

  • Returns to Las Vegas

    Johnson was signed to the Raiders' practice squad Tuesday.

    Analysis: Johnson is back with the Raiders after being waived by the team Friday. The fullback doesn't have a clear path to playing time, but he appears to be sticking around Las Vegas for the time being.

  • Let go by Las Vegas

    The Raiders waived Johnson (concussion) on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Johnson practiced in full Wednesday, and the fact that Las Vegas waived him without an injury designation seems to indicate that he's fully cleared the league's concussion protocol. That means Johnson will be eligible to immediately contribute should a team claim him off waivers. Johnson was a starting fullback for the Raiders, but he doesn't have a clear fit in the team's new offensive scheme.

  • Practices in full Wednesday

    Johnson (concussion) was a full participant at practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: It bodes well for Johnson's chances to play in Week 11, but there may still be outstanding steps for him to clear league concussion protocol. Las Vegas will hold two more practices this week, giving Johnson two more chances to shed his injury designation before the weekend.

  • Inactive in Week 10

    Johnson (concussion) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: Johnson logged a limited practice session Friday but will be unavailable for a second consecutive game due to a concussion that he sustained during the Raiders' Week 8 loss to the Lions. While he'll remain out in Week 10, he could be in the mix to return for next Sunday's game against Miami.

  • Could return Sunday

    Johnson (concussion) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old fullback was able to log a limited practice session Friday after recording consecutive DNPs at practice Wednesday and Thursday. Johnson has appeared in eight games for the Raiders this season, recording 12 yards from scrimmage and primarily playing on special teams.

  • Missing Week 9

    Johnson (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against Giants, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.

    Analysis: Johnson, who exited the Raiders' Week 8 game with a concussion, was unable to practice all week, so it's no surprise that he's been ruled out ahead of Sunday's contest. The fullback has received only one touch on offense this year while also playing on 39 percent of Las Vegas' special-teams snaps.

  • Won't return Monday

    Johnson (concussion) won't return to Monday's game against the Lions.

    Analysis: Johnson exited in the second half Monday to be evaluated for a concussion and will now miss the remainder of the game. The Raiders will be left without a fullback for the remainder of the contest and Johnson will focus on getting healthy and clearing the concussion protocol.

  • Returning to Vegas

    Johnson agreed Tuesday with the Raiders on a one-year deal, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Johnson joined the Raiders in 2022 after spending his first three seasons with the Patriots, as he followed head coach Josh McDaniels to Las Vegas. He was a reliable option for the team when it used fullback sets, and he suited up for all 17 games. However, he was not very fantasy relevant, recording just 10 receiving yards on two receptions. The 28-year-old projects to see a similar role in 2023.

  • Catches first pass of game

    Johnson caught his only target for no gain in Sunday's 22-16 overtime win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: Johnson caught quarterback Derek Carr's first pass of the game, but the former was otherwise used primarily as a blocker while logging 22 offensive snaps. Through the Raiders' first 10 contests, Johnson has yet to record a single carry and he's totaled only three receptions for six yards.

  • Handling blocking role

    Johnson played 20 of the Raiders' 70 snaps on offense (29 percent) but didn't log a target or carry in Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: The 20 snaps were Johnson's most since Week 5, but as per usual, the Raiders didn't utilize him as anything more than a blocker. Johnson has just two receptions on the season and has yet to carry the ball in 46 career regular-season appearances.

  • One reception in Raiders debut

    Johnson caught his only target for one yard in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: Johnson earned just one touch in eight offensive snaps during his Raiders debut, though he also appeared on special teams. The fullback doesn't figure to gain much fantasy relevance with Josh Jacobs handling a bulk of the carries out of the backfield while Brandon Bolden (hamstring) and Ameer Abdullah split passing-down work.

  • Inks deal with Raiders

    Johnson signed a one-year contract with the Raiders on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The Raiders opted not to extend fullback Alec Ingold a contract last week, and Johnson is set to replace him for the Raiders. He primarily served as a blocker for the Patriots in 2021 and had four receptions for 43 yards in 17 games.

  • Set to become free agent

    The Patriots will not be tendering Johnson, who will become a free agent when the new league year begins March 16, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Johnson is one of the best fullbacks in the league and is expected to have a market for his services. However, he isn't worthy of fantasy consideration, as he's totaled just 13 catches for 83 yards and one touchdown over three seasons with New England.

  • Given roster exemption

    Johnson has received a roster exemption as part of the International Pathway Program, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Johnson thus won't count against the offseason 90-man roster, making it substantially easier for him to stick with the Patriots and continue to develop. He's looking to suit up at fullback for a third straight season with the team.

  • Signs deal with Patriots

    The Patriots signed Johnson to a one-year contract Thursday, according to his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Johnson will stay in New England to continue his fullback role for his third consecutive season. The 26-year-old had an increased catching role in his 2020 campaign, securing eight receptions for 35 yards and one touchdown through 16 games. While the fullback has yet to log any carries, expect Johnson to assume his usual blocking role for the team in 2021.

  • Active for TNF

    Johnson (knee) will suit up in Thursday's game against the Rams.

    Analysis: Johnson was limited during the week of practice with the knee issue, but as evidenced by this news, it wasn't serious enough to force him to miss time. Johnson will likely assume his usual blocking role for the contest, as he's hauled in just eight targets for 35 yards and a touchdown this season while not logging any carries to date.

  • Limited by knee injury

    Johnson was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's injury report due to a knee issue.

    Analysis: New England also listed Johnson as limited on the first injury report that was released Monday, one day after the Patriots dismantled the Chargers, 45-0. Johnson often serves strictly as a blocker for New England, but he even got into the act in the blowout win, catching his lone target for a one-yard gain. Johnson has played in 11 of the Patriots' 12 games to date, hauling in all eight of his targets for 35 yards and a touchdown.
