Limited action in return
Lower Body
November 17, 2024
Johnson (lower body) posted two carries for 14 yards during Saturday's 27-16 win over LSU.
ANALYSIS
Johnson was able to suit up for the first time in a month, but as predicted was extremely limited in the Florida win. Jaden Baugh and Ja'Kobi Jackson both found the end zone rushing, and all three could figure into the mix against Ole Miss next weekend.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Johnson came over from Louisiana with head coach Billy Napier, and the step up in competition did little to affect his impact in 2022. In fact, Johnson posted virtually identical numbers from his time as a member of the Ragin’ Cajuns, rushing for 841 yards while managing double-digit touchdowns for the second-consecutive season. Johnson showcased a nose for the goal line as well as the ability to break loose for big gainers, averaging a stellar 5.4 yards per tote. Johnson remains limited as a receiver, as he caught just 12 balls for 58 yards and a touchdown in his first season in Gainesville. The presence of Trevor Etienne will also continue to limit his upside, as Etienne himself rushed 118 times for 719 yards and six touchdowns last season. In addition, it remains to be seen how the departure of Anthony Richardson will play into the offensive scheme for the Gators. Richardson was a dangerous, dynamic dual-threat quarterback, while his replacement Graham Mertz will be largely a pocket passer, and one that has been inconsistent. As such, teams could try to load the box against Johnson and Etienne and force Mertz to prove he can beat opposing defenses with his arm.
Johnson transferred from Louisiana and will be reunited with former coach Billy Napier. Johnson rushed for 838 yards and 12 touchdowns as a freshman with the Ragin’ Cajuns. He averaged 5.2 yards pe tote. Johnson’s main competition for carries out of the backfield will be Nay’Quan Wright, who received fairly limited work as the third-string rusher in 2021. Wright appears to be the better receiver of the two, though, as Wright snagged 14 passes for 178 yards and an additional touchdown out of the backfield. Meanwhile, Johnson caught just six passes for 53 yards last season. As such, Johnson could be used as the early-down and goal-line back, with the smaller Wright coming in as a change-of-pace or on passing downs.
