Ty Johnson - Page 7 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Scores while Carter sprains ankle Johnson rushed five times for 62 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Bears. He added a 16-yard catch and was targeted twice.

Impact James Robinson (coach's decision) was inactive and Michael Carter suffered a sprained ankle, leaving Johnson in a change-of-pace role behind rookie Zonovan Knight. Johnson's effective with the ball in his hands but has been plagued by a litany of drops and other miscues when given extended run in the past. The impressive burst and effective stiff arm Johnson displayed on a 32-yard touchdown run in the third quarter could earn him a few extra looks in Week 13 against the Vikings, as the Jets will likely be without Carter.

Four carries in Week 11 Johnson rushed four times for four yards and didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 10-3 loss to the Patriots.

Impact The running back trio of Michael Carter, James Robinson and Johnson combined for 33 rushing yards on 19 carries, so Johnson wasn't alone in his inability to get going on the ground. Limited to a depth role in a sputtering Jets offense, Johnson's unlikely to garner much fantasy consideration in Week 12, even with the shaky Bears defense in town.

Two carries in win Johnson rushed twice for 17 yards and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Bills.

Impact James Robinson (knee) was viewed as questionable heading into the game, but he suited up and handled 15 touches. With 13 touches going to Michael Carter, there weren't many opportunities left over for Johnson, who is a distant third on New York's running back depth chart.

Two carries, two targets in Week 8 Johnson rushed twice for six yards and didn't catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Patriots.

Impact New York's acquisition of James Robinson via trade earlier in the week kept Johnson relegated to a third-string role behind Robinson and Michael Carter. Breece Hall (knee) is out for the season, but Johnson's role in the Jets backfield remains minimal.

Climbs up depth chart Johnson is expected to step in as the top change-of-pace option behind Michael Carter beginning with Sunday's game against the Patriots after tests confirmed lead back Breece Hall...

Impact Johnson already noticed an uptick in playing time when Hall exited in the second quarter of the 16-9 win over Denver, logging seven snaps on offense after playing just one in the prior four contests combined. During his limited time on the field, Johnson turned his two touches into nine yards, and while his output could increase from here, he's still unlikely to emerge as a viable fantasy option in most leagues with Carter capable of filling Hall's three-down role. Carter dominated the snaps and touches out of the backfield following Hall's departure Sunday, carrying 13 times for 29 yards and adding 45 yards on two receptions across his 40 plays.

Two touches after Hall injury Johnson rushed once for three yards and caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Broncos.

Impact Breece Hall (knee) departed in the first half with what's feared to be a torn ACL. Michael Carter stepped into the lead role in Hall's absence, while Johnson took on the change-of-pace duties previously occupied by Carter. If Hall's indeed done for the season, Johnson should have a clear path to a handful of touches per game as Carter's backup moving forward.

OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Three targets in Week 2 win Johnson didn't have a rushing attempt and caught one of three targets for four yards in Sunday's 31-30 win over the Browns.

Impact Johnson was targeted out of the backfield three times in Week 2 after going without a touch in the Jets' season opener. As long as both Breece Hall and Michael Carter are healthy, Johnson will remain an afterthought on offense.

Dealing with injury Johnson is currently dealing with a hamstring injury, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

Impact Johnson doesn't currently have a timetable for a return, but he's unlikely to return to the field this week. The 24-year-old was able to earn an increase in snaps last season, but the addition of Breece Hall in the first round of the 2022 Draft will threaten his role.

Jets RB Ty Johnson Enjoyed His Teammates, Produced in 3rd-Down Role Despite the Struggles of the Season, 'It's Been a Great Time, Good Vibes, Good Energy'

FEBRUARY 8, 2022 • NEWYORKJETS.COM

Tops 600 scrimmage yards in 2021 Johnson finished the 2021 season with 61 carries for 238 yards and two touchdowns in 16 games. He added 34 catches for 372 yards and two touchdowns on 55 targets.

Impact Johnson handled himself adequately while bouncing up and down the depth chart in the Jets backfield. He's explosive with the ball in his hands but struggled with drops and a lack of awareness, with the low point of his season coming when the ball bounced off Johnson's back for an interception. The 24-year-old running back remains under contract with the Jets through next season, and Johnson is well positioned to make the team's roster in a change-of-pace role unless New York bolsters its backfield depth in the offseason.

Finds end zone after Carter injury Johnson rushed five times for 35 yards and a touchdown while catching three of four targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Buccaneers.

Impact Michael Carter exited the game with a concussion in the first half, leaving Johnson and Austin Walter to split carries with Tevin Coleman on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Johnson had been used sparingly of late but made the most of the extra opportunities, giving the Jets a 24-10 lead with a one-yard touchdown plunge in the third quarter. It was all Buccaneers after that, though. Johnson's usage could decline in Week 18 against the Bills if Carter or Coleman suits up.
