Josh Allen-led Bills offense misfires for 2nd straight outing in loss to Atlanta

Accounts for 16 yards in Week 6 Johnson carried once for five yards and added an 11-yard reception on two targets in Monday's 24-14 loss to the Falcons.

Impact For the fourth straight game, Johnson outpaced Ray Davis in playing time, with the latter running back being limited to just two snaps while the former logged 24, his most since Week 1. Starter James Cook still led the backfield with 30 snaps on the night, though he was limited to just one carry in the fourth quarter while the Bills largely abandoned the run and leaned more heavily on Johnson in passing situations. The Bills seemingly view Johnson mainly as a passing-down specialist, and even if Cook were to miss time at some point after the team's Week 7 bye, Davis could still garner a good portion of the carries out of the backfield.

Two carries vs. New England Johnson rushed twice for 10 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Patriots.

Impact Johnson played 12 offensive snaps and operated as Buffalo's top reserve running back for the third consecutive game in Week 5. He's now tallied 10 carries for 53 yards and one catch for eight yards across 73 offensive snaps this season. The Maryland product is expected to operate in a similar role in the Week 6 matchup against the Falcons, contributing both on offense and special teams.

Totals 21 yards in TNF win Johnson rushed three times for 13 yards and caught one pass for eight yards in Buffalo's win over Miami on Thursday night.

Impact Johnson played 15 offensive snaps behind James Cook and has now amassed 51 total yards on eight touches through three games. He has extremely minimal fantasy value.

Minimal production against Jets Johnson rushed twice for six yards and failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 30-10 win over the Jets.

Impact Johnson was not a big part of the Bills' game plan Sunday, playing just 19 of Buffalo's 75 offensive snaps behind both James Cook (35) and Ray Davis (20). The veteran running back has just four total rushes and zero catches on three targets through the first two games of the season. Barring an injury to either Cook or Davis, Johnson is unlikely to hold much fantasy value that can be consistently relied upon in an offense flush with playmakers. The 28-year-old will get his next chance to be more involved when the Bills host the Dolphins in Week 3.

Handles two carries in opener Johnson rushed twice for 24 yards and failed to secure either of his two targets in Sunday's 41-40 win over the Ravens.

Impact Johnson's minimal production came on a day in which he handled 28 of the Bills' 85 offensive snaps, the second-most snaps at running back behind starter James Cook (48) and ahead of Ray Davis (10). The 27-year-old could have some good days on the stat sheet as a rotational player on one of the league's best offenses, but his limited usage will make those performances both inconsistent and hard to predict. Barring injury, Cook is the fantasy star in Buffalo's backfield, with both Johnson and Davis holding value as insurance policies. Johnson and the Bills are set to square off against the Jets in Week 2.

Leading rusher in preseason loss Johnson carried the ball three times for 26 yards in Saturday's 34-25 preseason loss to the Giants.

Impact The veteran was the second running back into the game for the Bills, as James Cook stayed on the sidelines and Ray Davis got the start. Johnson wound up leading Buffalo in rushing on the afternoon despite playing only one drive, as he churned out gains of 14, eight and four yards to help set up a Dawson Knox touchdown. Cook is staging a hold-in while seeking a contract extension, and if he absence lingers into the regular season or he doesn't get back to practice in time to get up to full speed ahead of Week 1, Johnson could see a significant early-season workload in tandem with Davis.

Running back James Cook's contract standoff with Bills reaches 3rd practice

The Buffalo Bills and James Cook are in a contract standoff, with the running back skipping his third consecutive training camp practice

AUGUST 6, 2025 • Associated Press

Seeing more work with starters Johnson and Ray Davis are getting more first-team reps while James Cook (contract) is absent from practices, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

Impact Cook was an observer at the past couple practices, making it clear to reporters that his lack of activity was due to "business" and not an injury. He's seeking an extension ahead of the final year of his rookie contract, now opting for a "hold in" after fully participating in the first week-plus of training camp. Davis presumably would fill in as the lead runner if Cook were to miss time during the regular season, but Johnson could also see his role grow in that scenario. Johnson got most of his playing time in passing situations last year, finishing the regular season with 59 touches for 497 yards and four TDs on 289 offensive snaps.

Staying in Buffalo Johnson and the Bills agreed to a two-year contract Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Johnson finished the 2024 regular season with 497 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns on 59 touches across 17 games, and his 289 offensive snaps were his most since the 2021 campaign with the Jets. Johnson figures to reprise his role as a kick return specialist and backup running back behind James Cook for the 2025 campaign.

JANUARY 27, 2025 • Associated Press

Free agency looms after AFCCG loss Johnson had five carries for 19 yards and secured his only target for a gain of zero yards during 32-29 loss to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game.

Impact Johnson worked behind backfield leader James Cook, and above rookie fourth-round pick Ray Davis, during Buffalo's narrow season-ending loss to Kansas City. While suiting up for all 17 regular-season games, Johnson compiled 41 carries for 213 yards (5.1 YPC) and one touchdown, while also hauling in 18 of 25 targets for 284 yards and another three scores. He compiled 130 kick return yards, as well. Johnson is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
