Johnson (undisclosed) reverted to the Giants' reserve/PUP list Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson was let go by the team on Tuesday due to a failed physical but will now stay in New York after clearing waivers. The 2023 seventh-round pick will now be forced to miss at least the first four games of the regular season before he will be eligible to return.

The Giants waived Johnson (undisclosed) with a failed physical designation Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson was a seventh-round selection by Green Bay in the 2023 NFL Draft. He joined the Giants last season and got into nine contests, tallying five tackles and one defensed pass while playing primarily on special teams. It's not clear what caused him to fail his physical ahead of training camp.

Johnson had one solo tackle and an interception in Sunday's 20-3 win over the Rams.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson got the start at strong safety with Rudy Ford (calf) ruled out Sunday. Johnson took advantage of the opportunity, playing in all defensive snaps and getting his first-career interception off of Brett Rypien on a pass intended for Cooper Kupp early in the fourth quarter. The rookie safety only had one tackle for the game, but that's more to do with Rypien completing just 13 of 28 passes on the game, so the former's opportunities were limited. If Ford is unable to practice over the next few days, Johnson would figure to get the start once again in Week 10 against the Steelers.

Johnson appears to be starting Sunday's game against the Rams based on pregame warmups, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie is playing in place of Rudy Ford, who is out with a calf injury. Johnson has played on 26 snaps this season, eight on defense and 18 on special teams, and has yet to record a stat.

Johnson (knee) saw action in Saturday's 19-15 preseason victory over the Seahawks.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson did not make a mark in the box score, but he did take the field just a couple days after injuring his knee. The Packers are unsettled at the safety position, and the rookie seventh-rounder stands a chance to make the cut.

Johnson (knee) will not practice Thursday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson's absence is to rest the injury which is not expected to be long term. The rookie safety is expected to fill a depth role in the secondary this season. However, he'll need to focus on his recovery first, so he can be ready to compete Week 1 against the Bears.

Johnson (undisclosed) passed his physical and has been removed from the active/PUP list, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson was sidelined to start camp due to an undisclosed injury, but he's back to full strength and should return to practice soon. The rookie undrafted free agent out of Virginia will presumably compete for a depth role at cornerback, so he should get plenty of action during the preseason.

The Saints have placed Johnson on their active/PUP list ahead of training camp due to an undisclosed injury.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson signed with New Orleans as an undrafted free agent during the offseason. He played with both Virginia and Louisville during his collegiate career and accumulated 138 tackles (94 solo), seven interceptions, and three forced fumbles across 55 games during in the process. He is competing for a depth role at cornerback, so a quick return from the active/PUP list would be advantageous.
