Done in Houston The Texans waived Johnson (arm) with an injury settlement Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.

He wasn't claimed off waivers by another team, and by reverting to the Texans' IR, Johnson will be forced to miss the entire 2025 season unless an injury settlement is reached. He spent the entire 2024 season on the Texans' practice squad and has appeared in two regular-season games since his rookie campaign in 2022.

Waived with injury designation The Texans waived Johnson (arm) with an injury designation Wednesday.
Impact Johnson had his arm in a sling at practice Wednesday, according to Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle.

Once he clears waivers, Johnson will revert to the Texans' injured reserve list.

Impact Johnson has been a regular on Houston's practice squad, originally joining the franchise in 2022. Since then he's appeared in two games for the team, but he has yet to record any counting stats. He'll have a chance to make a greater impact in 2025.

Lands on practice squad Johnson signed with the Texans' practice squad Wednesday.

Doesn't make 53-man roster Johnson was waived by Houston on Tuesday.
Impact Johnson spent most of the 2023 season on the Texans' practice squad, though he did appear in the regular-season finale against the Colts, during which he played nine snaps (four on offense, five on special teams). He entered training camp competing for a depth wide receiver role, and across four preseason games he accrued four catches on six targets for 50 yards and one touchdown. Should he clear waivers, Johnson could be invited to stick around on the Texans' practice squad or look to land on a roster elsewhere.
