Johnson could be in line for an expanded role Monday against the Giants with Chris Godwin (finger) set to miss the contest, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson has had an interesting rookie season, one that saw him inactive for the first two games of the campaign, target-less for the subsequent pair of contests and in the end zone twice on just seven catches over the last three. He was at his busiest in Week 5 against the Bears -- one of three games Godwin has already missed this season -- posting a 4-61 line on six targets. Johnson may not see the same volume versus New York, but he should slot into the No. 3 receiver role with Scotty Miller bumping up to No. 2 spot in Godwin's stead.
