Tests positive for COVID-19 Johnson tested positive for the coronavirus, which is why he was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Albert Breer of TheMMQB.com reports.
Impact It appears Johnson's positive tests surfaced Saturday, meaning he'll be out for the first round of playoffs as well, if the Browns make it. Denzel Ward is also on the reserve list, so Terrance Mitchell, Robert Jackson and Tavierre Thomas are expected to handle expanded roles in Sunday's matchup against the Steelers.

All clear for primetime appearance Johnson (groin) is active for Sunday night's game against the Giants, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.
Impact With Denzel Ward recuperated from a calf injury and prepared to make his first appearance since Week 11, Johnson is expected to recede into a reduced role within Cleveland's secondary. The Wake Forest product has garnered starts over each of the Browns' past three games, but he's logged only two starts in eight mutual appearances alongside Ward this season.

Makes debut Sunday Johnson made his season debut in Sunday's 34-20 win over Washington. He had three tackles and forced a fumble over 38 snaps (58 percent).
Impact Johnson, who had been dealing with an abdomen injury that forced him to miss the first two weeks, also played special teams Sunday. It looks like he's ready to handle a larger share of snaps Week 4 against Dallas. That will be a boost to the secondary, which is without Greedy Williams (shoulder) and lost Denzel Ward (groin) during the Week 3 win.
