Johnson rushed five times for 22 yards in Sunday's 27-21 win over the Patriots.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson played 13 of the Bills' 69 offensive snaps Sunday, operating as the No. 3 running back behind James Cook and Latavius Murray. In nine games this season, the veteran has now recorded just 29 carries for 127 yards with six catches for 53 yards and a touchdown. Johnson is not seeing enough work in Buffalo's offense to be a consideration for fantasy purposes as the Bills wrap up their regular season against the Dolphins in Week 18.

Johnson (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson practiced fully Friday to gain clearance after limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday. He's set to return from a one-game absence and continue splitting the leftovers behind starting running back James Cook with Latavius Murray, though Buffalo's backfield could get even more crowded if the Bills elevate Leonard Fournette from the practice squad again.

Johnson (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old running back missed Buffalo's Week 16 win over the Chargers with this shoulder issue, and he's now opened the team's week of practice with consecutive limited sessions. Unless Johnson is able to practice in full Friday, he'll likely carry an injury designation into the weekend.

Johnson (shoulder) was a limited practice participant for Wednesday's walkthrough.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson was a limited participant all last week before ultimately being inactive for the Bills' road win over the Chargers. His absence allowed Leonard Fournette to suit up for the first time all season, albeit with minimal impact in a game in which lead back James Cook took on a career-high 75 percent snap share.

Johnson (shoulder) is listed as inactive Saturday at the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson is sitting on the heels of his most productive game of the campaign Sunday against the Cowboys, when he notched nine carries for 54 yards and one catch (on one target) for four yards. He proceeded to be listed as limited on all three of the Bills' Week 16 practice reports due to a shoulder injury and headed into the weekend as questionable for Saturday's game. Buffalo signaled that Johnson may not be available when the team elevated Leonard Fournette earlier Saturday, and that has come to pass. As a result, Fournette and Latavius Murray will be the options to spell starting running back James Cook this week.

Johnson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old running back sustained a shoulder injury during this past Sunday's 31-10 win over the Cowboys, but he still has a chance to play against the Chargers after getting in three limited practices this week. Johnson carried a season-high nine times for 54 yards and added one catch for four yards in the blowout win over Dallas.

Johnson (shoulder) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson was listed as limited in Tuesday's walkthrough, and there was no change in his status when the Bills actually held practice Wednesday. Assuming he plays Saturday against the Chargers, Johnson will likely continue to split the backfield work behind James Cook with Latavius Murray. If he can upgrade to full participation Thursday, Johnson could still avoid carrying an injury designation into Saturday's game.

Johnson (shoulder) was listed as limited on Tuesday's estimated injury report.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson made a brief exit from this past Sunday's win against the Cowboys due to a shoulder injury, and he then visited the X-ray room afterward. He earned a season-high 29 percent snap share in that game and ended up notching nine carries for 54 yards and one catch (on one target) for four yards. Even if he's able to play Saturday at the Chargers, Johnson won't do much more than spell starting running back James Cook, who has reeled off five straight games with 100-plus yards from scrimmage.

Johnson (shoulder) went to the X-ray room after Sunday's 31-10 win over the Cowboys, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson was deemed questionable to return due to a shoulder injury in the second quarter but later checked back into the game. He finished with nine carries for 54 yards, as well as a four-yard catch on his only target. James Cook produced 221 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns, so Cook should continue to lead Buffalo's backfield in Week 16 against the Chargers regardless of what the X-rays on Johnson's shoulder show.

Johnson (shoulder) has been cleared to return to Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson briefly left in the second quarter, but is back in the game. He'll continue to serve as the RB3 behind James Cook and Latavius Murray while handling the kick return duties.
