Fantasy Impact:
Johnson had a very productive career as a Golden Gopher, hauling in 197 catches for 3,044 yards and 29 touchdowns. The 6-foot-2 receiver gets to learn the game from two of the best wide receivers in the game in Chris Godwin and Mike Evans, all while catching passes from arguably the best quarterback in NFL history in Tom Brady. He may not make an immediate impact with all the passing options in Tampa Bay, but Johnson could carve out a decent role as the 3rd or 4th WR option for Brady this season. He’s more of a dynasty stash at this point.
