Ty Johnson - Page 8 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Five catches in Week 10 Johnson rushed twice for two yards and caught five of eight targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 45-17 loss to Buffalo.

Impact Johnson has become a consistent contributor in the Jets' passing attack, as he came into this game with a receiving touchdown in each of the previous two and now has at least five catches in three of the last four. Michael Carter remains the top option in New York's backfield, and the Jets welcomed Tevin Coleman back from a hamstring injury for this one, but Johnson's receiving ability makes him a player worth monitoring in fantasy, especially in PPR formats.

Another receiving TD in loss Johnson rushed four times for 21 yards and secured two of three targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in the Jets' 45-30 loss to the Colts on Thursday night. He also lost a fumble.

Impact Johnson logged nine fewer carries than backfield mate Michael Carter, but he still made a fantasy impact with a 22-yard scoring grab late in the fourth quarter. Johnson now has receiving touchdowns in back-to-back games after notching just one in his first three seasons, but his typically modest rushing role keeps his overall value capped.

Sparks comeback with receiving TD Johnson rushed four times for 15 yards while catching five of six targets for 71 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Bengals.

Impact Michael Carter compiled 172 scrimmage yards and a touchdown while working as New York's primary backfield option, but Johnson also flourished when called upon, primarily in passing situations. He ignited New York's comeback by scoring the first of two Jets touchdowns in the final five minutes. Johnson was originally ruled out of bounds, but the Jets challenged the play and it was determined that Johnson successfully tiptoed the sideline for a 19-yard touchdown. With 11 catches over the past two weeks, Johnson should be on the PPR flex radar with the Jets set to kick off the Week 9 action Thursday against the Colts.

Impact Johnson must've been cleared after exiting Sunday's loss to New England in the fourth quarter to be evaluated for a concussion. He'll likely continue in his timeshare with Michael Carter this Sunday against the Bengals, while Tevin Coleman (hamstring) appears in danger of missing another game after a DNP on Wednesday.

Suffers possible concussion Johnson exited Sunday's game against the Patriots to be evaluated for a concussion.

Impact Johnson rushed five times for six yards and caught three of four targets for 40 yards before leaving the contest. Michael Carter should handle the bulk of the backfield work while he's being evaluated, while La'Mical Perine operates in a secondary role.

Seven touches, finds end zone Johnson recorded four rushes for 12 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Falcons. He added two receptions for 22 yards.

Impact Johnson split carries as the Jets' second back with Tevin Coleman and behind Michael Carter. His day was hardly noteworthy as a rusher, with his biggest contribution being a one-yard touchdown plunge early in the third quarter. On the other hand, he was more effective as a receiver by logging two 11-yard catches out of the backfield. The Jets continue to shift their work in the backfield to Carter and Johnson and away from Coleman, a trend that is likely to continue after the team's bye in Week 7 against New England.

Just five touches in Week 4 Johnson rushed three times for one yard and caught both of his targets for another 12 yards in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win over the Titans.

Impact Johnson's five touches trailed both Michael Carter (14) and Tevin Coleman (six) in the Jets' backfield. New York's offense came alive with a season-high 27 points in the team's first win of the season, but Johnson's limited role suggests he'll remain a fantasy afterthought barring a shakeup in the Jets' backfield pecking order. Johnson also saw usage as a kick returner, totaling 57 yards on three returns.

Sees limited work Johnson rushed the ball three times for 17 yards in Sunday's Week 3 loss to the Broncos. He also recorded one reception on five targets for six yards.

Impact Michael Carter took over the backfield in the absence of Tevin Coleman (illness), though the team tried to heavily utilize Johnson as a pass catcher. Even with the limited workload, Johnson managed one of few highlights for the team when gained 13 yards on a carry just before halftime. If Coleman remains sidelined for the Jets' Week 4 matchup against Tennessee, Johnson could remain heavily involved in a pass-catching role.
