Johnson agreed to terms with the Dolphins on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran linebacker will join his third team after spending the last five seasons with the Broncos and Seahawks. Johnson appeared in only one game last year, spending most of his time on Seattle's practice squad. Throughout his career, the 31-year-old tallied 252 tackles, 11 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks in 39 appearances. Expect the Tennessee product to compete for a depth role on Miami's defense ahead of the coming season.

Seattle signed Johnson to its practice squad Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson lands a practice-squad deal with Seattle two weeks after working out for the team. The undrafted linebacker logged 32 tackles, two sacks and one fumble recovery for Denver last year before suffering a season-ending pectoral injury in Week 6. Now that he's healthy, he'll look to work his way onto Seattle's 53-man roster.

Johnson (pectoral) was working out with Seattle Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson suffered a season-ending pectoral injury Week 6 of the 2021 campaign with Denver. The veteran logged 32 tackles, two sacks, three pass breakups and one fumble recovery through his six games last season. He'll look to earn a linebacker role elsewhere for 2022 now that he remains healthy.

Johnson (pectoral) was moved to injured reserve Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The linebacker suffered a season-ending pectoral injury in Week 6 versus the Raiders, so the move to the IR was an expected one. Johnson finishes his 2021 campaign with 32 tackles, two sacks, three pass deflections and a fumble recovery. Justin Strnad and Micah Kiser will operate as the Broncos' top inside linebacker options moving forward.

Johnson suffered a torn pectoral muscle during Sunday's loss to the Raiders and will be sidelined for the rest of the season, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Broncos were bracing for the worst after sending Johnson in for an MRI on Monday, and as feared, his 2021 campaign is over. Denver now has lost both of its top insider linebackers to torn pecs, as Josey Jewell previously went on injured reserve after Week 2. Johnson is expected to undergo surgery to address the injury soon, and the Broncos' depth in the middle will be further challenged in the short term with Baron Browning (concussion) also ruled out for a Week 7 matchup with the Browns. Expect Justin Strnad and Micah Kiser to serve as the team's starting inside linebackers Thursday.

Johnson will get an MRI on Monday to confirm the nature of what appears to be a pectoral injury, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports
EDGE Analysis
Klis said the injury would be "devastating" to Johnson as well as the Denver defense if confirmed. With multiple other injuries at the position, the Broncos may need to look to their practice squad or the free-agent wire for replacement options.

Johnson (chest) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Raiders.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson is now the third Broncos linebacker ruled out for the game, as depth options Baron Browning (concussion) and Andre Mintze (hamstring) are also out. Micah Kiser should take over at inside linebacker in the meantime.

Johnson posted eight tackles (six solo), a pass breakup and a fumble recovery in Sunday's 27-19 loss to the Steelers.
EDGE Analysis
For the second straight week, Johnson racked up eight tackles in a loss. The veteran linebacker was tied for the most tackles in the contest with safety Justin Simmons. Fantasy managers should consider Johnson a viable fantasy option going forward as he continues to rack up tackles consistently. Next up for Johnson and the Denver defense is a divisional showdown against the Raiders in Week 6.

Johnson made eight tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 23-7 loss to the Ravens.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson set a season high with eight tackles against the Ravens. The 29-year-old linebacker is coming off a 124-tackle season, but he has gotten off to a slow pace to start the 2021 campaign. If he can build off his Week 4 performance, then he be a viable fantasy option for the remainder of the season.
