EDGE Analysis

Coach Bruce Arians said the young wideout "missed a ton" of work the past week, but Arians also mentioned that Johnson had a standout play on an inside-out route during Thursday's session. The rookie fifth-round pick is expected to battle Scotty Miller and Justin Watson for the Bucs' No. 3 receiver job, albeit with Miller shaping up as the early favorite.
