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.

SEPTEMBER 8, 2025 • NFL.COM

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.

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.

Josh Allen ponders what-ifs after the Bills get bounced from the playoffs by the Chiefs yet again

Josh Allen could take plenty of satisfaction from a season in which he became the betting favorite for MVP and the Buffalo Bills defied the doubters who predicted a down year

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.

Bills' Ty Johnson Reflects On Big Playoff Outing Buffalo Bills running back Ty Johnson stepped up for the offense in the 31-7 win over the Denver Broncos.

JANUARY 13, 2025 • CHARLOTTEOBSERVER.COM

Finds end zone in Sunday's win Johnson carried the ball nine times for 44 yards and caught both his targets for 26 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-7 wild-card round win over the Broncos.

Impact The 11 touches represented Johnson's biggest volume of the year, and he capped the performance with a sliding circus catch on a 24-yard TD late in the third quarter. The veteran depth RB's big day came about in part because Ray Davis left the game just after halftime with a concussion following a big hit from Brandon Jones. If Davis doesn't get cleared through the concussion protocol in time to suit up for a divisional-round clash with the Ravens next weekend, Johnson would be in line for a bigger role once again, albeit against a stingier opponent.

Three touches in loss Johnson rushed twice for 13 yards and caught one of his two targets for no gain in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Patriots.

Impact Johnson played 17 of the Bills' 67 offensive snaps in the contest, behind Ray Davis (35) and James Cook (15). With Buffalo already locked into the No. 2 seed before the game, the Bills chose to rest many of their key players for all or most of the contest. Johnson remained in his similar role, while the rookie Davis benefitted the most with expanded playing time. The veteran will continue to operate in a supporting role behind starter Cook when the Bills host the Broncos in the wild card round of the playoffs.

Five touches against Jets Johnson rushed four times for 16 yards and caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 40-14 win over the Jets.

Impact Johnson was mostly an afterthought in the Bills victory over the Jets, producing a modest 25 total yards in the contest. The veteran finished second in running back snaps (21), behind James Cook (32) and ahead of Ray Davis (16). Buffalo has clinched the No. 2 seed in the playoffs, so it's possible that head coach Sean McDermott could choose to rest his starters in the season finale. In that scenario, Johnson and Davis could both see an uptick in usage in place of Cook. The Bills will host the Patriots in Week 18.

Minmal production against Patriots Johnson rushed six times for 30 yards and failed to reel in his lone target in Sunday's 24-21 win over the Patriots.

Impact Johnson wasn't able to get much going Sunday despite leading all Bills running backs in playing time. The veteran handled 23 offensive snaps while James Cook and Ray Davis played 21 and 14 snaps, respectively. While Cook is the clear favorite for valuable running back touches in Buffalo's offense, Johnson remains an unreliable fantasy option heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Jets.

DECEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Leads team in receiving yardage Johnson rushed twice for nine yards and caught all five of his targets for 114 yards in Sunday's 48-42 win over the Lions.

Impact Johnson's 123 scrimmage yards were by far a season high for the running back. The veteran led the team in receiving yards and despite playing just 30 percent of the Bills' offensive snaps in the contest. Although he had an impressive performance against the Lions, Johnson's inconsistent usage and production make him difficult to trust for fantasy. Barring an injury to starter James Cook, Johnson should not be relied upon in the fantasy playoffs. The Bills will host the Patriots in Week 16.
