Johnson secured three of five targets for 61 yards in the Saints' 19-17 loss to the Falcons on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran tight end led the Saints in receiving yards while also securing a team-high 28-yard grab. Johnson had an opportunity for extra targets due to the absences of both Chris Olave (illness) and Mason Tipton (IR, groin), but Tyler Shough ended up spreading the ball around to seven different pass catchers overall. Johnson finished the 2025 season with a career-best 77 receptions and 889 receiving yards, and he totaled three touchdowns for the second consecutive season. Given the rapport Johnson flashed with Shough over the second half of the season, the former will head into 2026 with a very encouraging fantasy outlook

Johnson brought in all four targets for 95 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 34-26 win over the Titans on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson tied for second in receptions while checking in as the runner-up in receiving yards as well for the Saints, continuing a multi-week run of productive performances. The veteran tight end has at least four receptions in seven straight games, and he's recorded at least 89 receiving yards in three of those contests. Johnson heads into a Week 18 road matchup against the Falcons already boasting a career-high 74 catches and 828 receiving yards across 16 games.

Johnson caught eight of nine targets for 89 yards in Sunday's 29-6 win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson tied his season high for receptions and came three receiving yards shy of his season high as Tyler Shough threw for a career-high 308 yards. This was the sixth consecutive game with at least four receptions for Johnson, who has emerged as a steady contributor in a Saints passing game that lacks appealing healthy alternatives behind Chris Olave. Johnson will look to keep building momentum in Week 17 against the Titans.

Johnson caught all four of his targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson has made at least four catches in five consecutive games, though his 30 receiving yards Sunday marked Johnson's lowest total since Week 6. He ranks second on the team in catches and receiving yards behind Chris Olave. Johnson is likely to maintain his steady pass-catching role in Week 16 against the Jets.

Johnson secured all four targets for 38 yards in the Saints' 24-20 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran tight end finished with modest production yardage-wise, but he did produce a team-high reception total. Johnson also finished second in receiving yards on a low-volume day for the air attack, but he now has at least four catches in six of the last seven contests going into a Week 15 home matchup against the Panthers next Sunday.

Johnson logged five receptions (on nine targets) for 39 yards during Sunday's 21-17 defeat to the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson logged over eight targets for the first time since Week 2 and led the team in this category ahead of wideouts Devaughn Vele (eight) and Chris Olave (seven). The tight end finished with a decent outing by his standard, as he's now averaging 4.5 receptions and 48.0 receiving yards per game across 12 outings. In four games with rookie QB Tyler Shough starting under center, Johnson has accumulated an 18-208-2 stat line. He should remain as one of the Saints' top three targets when they next play versus Tampa Bay in Week 14.

Johnson hauled in six of seven targets for 46 yards during Sunday's 24-10 defeat to the Falcons.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson tied his second-most receptions in a game this season. After catching touchdowns in each of his previous two outings, the tight end finished as the Saints' second-leading receiver behind WR1 Chris Olave. Johnson also tied with running back Devin Neal and wideout Devaughn Vele for the team's second-most targets. Johnson is still on pace to have a career-best season, averaging 4.5 catches (on 6.2 targets) for 48.8 yards across 11 outings. He should continue to serve as New Orleans' No. 2 target during a Week 13 game versus Miami on Sunday, Nov. 30.

Johnson caught all four of his targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-7 win over the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

The tight end put together a career-best day in terms of yardage, including a 30-yard touchdown from rookie quarterback Tyler Shough in the fourth quarter, the second straight game in which the duo has connected for a score. Johnson is having a breakout campaign in his sixth NFL season, putting together a 43-491-3 line on 61 targets through 10 games heading into the Saints' bye week.

Johnson recorded three receptions (on four targets) for 31 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 34-10 loss versus the Rams.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson hauled in the lone passing touchdown from rookie quarterback Tyler Shough, who made his first career start for the Saints. This was the tight end's first touchdown since Week 2, and he tied with Chris Olave for the team's second-most targets behind WR2 Rashid Shaheed (nine). New Orleans' offense has been one of the worst-performing units in the NFL this season, but Johnson is on pace for the most productive campaign of his six-year career. Through nine games, he is just 11 catches and 149 receiving yards shy of his career-best marks from last year. The Saints next face the divisional-rival Panthers in Week 10 next Sunday.

Johnson caught 5 of 8 targets for 53 yards during Sunday's 23-3 loss versus the Buccaneers.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson logged five catches on at least seven targets for the second week in a row. The tight end once again finished third on the team in targets, receptions, and yards behind wide receivers Chris Olave (12-8-63) and Rashid Shaheed (12-9-75). The Saints benched starting quarterback Spencer Rattler for rookie Tyler Shough in the third quarter, as the passing offense continued to struggle in this game. New Orleans still logged 51 passing attempts as a team. If the team continues to air it out while playing from behind, then Johnson's fantasy production should benefit with a healthy number of targets going forward. New Orleans' next game will come versus the Rams in Week 8.
