Packers Make Another Trade, Reportedly Land RB Kaleb Johnson From Steelers

The Green Packers are acquiring running back Kaleb Johnson in a trade with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Packers Make Another Trade, Reportedly Land RB Kaleb Johnson From Steelers
Getting moved to Packers The Steelers are expected to trade Johnson to the Packers, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
Impact Johnson thus will get a fresh start in Green Bay after the third-round investment made in him last year didn't pan out in Pittsburgh. Working behind Jaylen Warren and Kenny Gainwell last season, Johnson turned 28 carries into just 69 yards (2.5 YPC) and no touchdowns while hauling in one of two targets for nine yards in 10 regular-season appearances as a rookie. Johnson will join a Green Bay backfield led by Josh Jacobs (groin) and backed up by MarShawn Lloyd and Chris Brooks.

Sees action late in preseason finale Johnson carried the ball five times for 11 yards in Thursday's 28-27 preseason loss to the Bills.
Impact It's not an encouraging sign for the 2025 third-round pick that he was the fourth running back into the game for the Steelers, as Johnson didn't get his first touch until the second half, after Lew Nichols, Eli Heidenreich and Travis Homer has all mixed into the backfield. Johnson is coming off a disappointing rookie campaign in which he managed just 69 rushing yards in 10 regular-season contests, and he could be on the roster bubble.
AUGUST 28 • ROTOWIRE
Tallies 54 yards in preseason loss Johnson turned 10 carries into 39 yards and caught both of his targets for 15 yards during the Steelers' 17-0 preseason loss to the Jets on Friday.
Impact Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle served as the Steelers' one-two punch out of the backfield in the first quarter, with Johnson getting his first touch in the second frame. Johnson ended up playing 24 snaps on offense and led all Steelers running backs in touches and yards. The 2025 third-rounder is currently slated as the RB3 behind Warren and Dowdle on the depth chart, but Johnson's spot on the Steelers' 53-man roster for the regular season is far from guaranteed. Pittsburgh wraps up its preseason Thursday against Buffalo.
