Johnson gathered in two of three targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 20-19 loss against Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson caught two passes from quarterback Spencer Rattler in the second half. The rookie signal-caller took over from Jake Haener, who was benched after the Saints went scoreless in the first half. Johnson had a chance to secure a comeback win after fellow tight end Foster Moreau caught a one-yard touchdown as time expired in the fourth quarter, but Johnson failed to connect with Rattler on the ensuing two-point conversion attempt. Johnson had caught a touchdown pass in two of the previous three games, but he and Moreau have continued to negate one another fantasy's relevance by splitting snaps and targets. This will likely remain the case during next week's road contest at Green Bay on Monday, Dec. 23.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson kicked off Week 15 prep with back-to-back limited practices due to a lingering foot injury, but a full session Friday has him in the clear to play this weekend. In the wake of Taysom Hill's season-ending ACL tear, Johnson and Foster Moreau split the TE reps this past Sunday at the Giants, with both players handling 49 of 68 offensive snaps. Johnson was more productive as a receiver, though, hauling in four of five targets for 50 yards and one touchdown while the latter caught both of his targets for 40 yards.

Johnson (foot) was limited at Thursday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

For a second week in a row, the Saints are placing a cap on Johnson's reps due to a foot issue. Despite being limited all of last week, though, he entered the weekend without a designation for this past Sunday's game at the Giants, when both he and Foster Moreau played 49 of 68 offensive snaps. Johnson was the more productive of the duo in the team's first contest without Taysom Hill (torn ACL): Johnson had a 4-50-1 line on five targets, while Moreau went for 2-40-0 on two targets. Friday's practice report will unveil whether or not Johnson has a designation ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Commanders.

Johnson practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday due to a foot injury, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Taysom Hill out for the season due to a torn ACL, Johnson and Foster Moreau handled the reps at tight end in this past Sunday's win over the Giants, with both players playing 49 of 68 offensive snaps. Both got in the act as pass catchers, with Johnson hauling in four of five targets for 50 yards and one touchdown and Moreau reeling in both targets for 40 yards. Johnson also tended to a foot injury last week, so there's a decent chance he's cleared for this coming Sunday's contest against the Commanders by week's end even if he remains limited in the Saints' final two practices of the week.

Johnson caught four of five targets for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 14-11 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

The tight end was on the other end of Derek Carr's only TD pass of the day, hauling in an 11-yard strike late in the third quarter. It was Johnson's third touchdown of the season and second in the last three games, and the 50 yards was a season high for him. Carr left the game late in the fourth quarter to be checked out for a concussion and a hand injury, and if he is forced to sit out a Week 15 clash with the Commanders, Johnson could be leaned on more heavily as a security blanket by Jake Haener or Spencer Rattler.

Johnson (foot) was limited in Friday's practice but does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Giants, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson and Foster Moreau (shoulder) both will be available for Sunday's road matchup against New York, though both have had caps on their practice reps leading up to Week 14 action. With Taysom Hill (knee) out for the season due to an ACL tear, Johnson and Moreau appear in line to split tight end reps for the Saints, roles that figure to provide both members of the duo with increased fantasy upside.

Johnson (foot) was limited in practice Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Both Johnson and Foster Moreau (shoulder) have had a cap on their practice reps so far this week, so Friday's injury report will be key for determining who among the duo may be cleared ahead of the weekend. Johnson and Moreau are the top candidates to split TE reps for the Saints the rest of the season after Taysom Hill tore his ACL this past Sunday against the Rams.

Johnson practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday due to a foot injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

In the wake of Taysom Hill's season-ending ACL tear, Johnson and Foster Moreau (shoulder) are expected to handle the bulk of the TE reps for the Saints moving forward. Having said that, both players began Week 14 prep with a cap on their practice reps. The pair will have two more opportunities Thursday and Friday before the team potentially tags them with designations ahead of Sunday's game at the Giants.

Johnson caught five of seven targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson actually finished just one yard shy of Saints leading receiver Taysom Hill (knee) in a contest that did not feature a ton of big passing plays. The backup tight end could be in store for extra work if the knee injury that Hill suffered late in Sunday's loss costs the starter time, but Foster Moreau remains in the mix as well. Either way, Johnson's ceiling is capped in games in which he doesn't hit pay dirt this season, keeping him out of the conversation in standard leagues ahead of next Sunday's tilt against the Giants.

Johnson caught all three of his targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns.

EDGE Analysis

The tight end was on the other end of a one-yard TD toss form Derek Carr in the fourth quarter. It's Johnson's second score of the season but his first since the Saints' season opener, and he has yet to reach 50 receiving yards in a game this season. Johnson will remain a TD-dependent fantasy option on the other side of New Orleans' Week 12 bye.
