D'Ernest Johnson

D’Ernest Johnson is returning to the Jaguars on a one-year deal.

Fantasy Impact

Johnson saw 41 carries and caught 10 passes in his first year with the Jaguars last season. He'll remain in a backup role behind Travis Etienne.

D'Ernest Johnson ran for two yards on one carry in the Jaguars' 30-12 loss against the Buccaneers.

Fantasy Impact

Johnson remains the primary backup behind Travis Etienne in the backfield for Jacksonville. He remains off the fantasy radar.

D'Ernest Johnson carried the ball twice for five yards and was not targeted in the passing game in a 23-7 loss to the Ravens in Week 15.

Fantasy Impact

Johnson continues to operate as the team's No. 2 running back, but that role didn't amount to much in a game where the Jaguars leaned heavily on their passing attack. Johnson remains a quality handcuff in fantasy heading into a Week 16 game against the Buccaneers.

D'Ernest Johnson has been removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Fantasy Impact

Johnson should remain in his change-of-pace role behind Travis Etienne.

Jacksonville Jaguars RB D'Ernest Johnson was limited for the second practice in a row to open the week with a knee injury.

Fantasy Impact

Johnson was limited all week last week with a knee injury but still played. A similar trajectory could be expected for Week 15. Since the Jags' Week 9 bye, Johnson has played 20-40% of the team's snaps, seeing an increased role compared to the start of the season. However, he's still not involved enough to be a startable fantasy asset (27 touches over his last four games).
