Vikings sign Charles Johnson off the Browns practice squad

The Vikings signed the 25-year-old Grand Valley State product off the Browns practice squad on Saturday. A 2013 7th-round pick by the Packers, Johnson caught only six passes for 65 yards in 115 preseason snaps with Cleveland this year. (Star Tribune)

Fantasy Impact:

Johnson takes the roster spot opened up earlier this week by Adrian Peterson, who was placed on the exempt list. He will compete for snaps with Rodney Smith and Adam Thielen, who like Johnson haven't caught a pass in the NFL. Don't expect Johnson to be anything more than the No. 4 WR on Minnesota. He isn't fantasy worthy unless an injury occurs.
