Josh Johnson signs with Bengals

Josh Johnson throws one TD in Week 18

Josh Johnson completed 14 of his 22 passes for 131 yards, one touchdown, and one interception while adding nine carries for 45 yards and a rushing score in a 24-17 win over the Eagles in Week 18.

Fantasy Impact

Johnson also lost a fumble but it didn't prevent him from pulling off the upset win over Philly in the regular-season finale. Johnson started the final two games of the season for Washington with both Jayden Daniels and Marcus Mariota injured. The veteran will look to latch on with an NFL team in a reserve role in the offseason.

Josh Johnson to start in Week 18

Josh Johnson efficient behind center in Week 17 loss to Cowboys

Josh Johnson completed 15-of-23 pass attempts for 198 yards and rushed twice for 10 yards in the Commanders' 30-23 Week 17 loss to the Cowboys.

Fantasy Impact

Johnson kept an underwhelming Washington offense in contention Thursday in his first start of the season, as the quarterback did not turn the ball over in the close loss. The veteran signal-caller could be in line for another start behind center in a Week 18 contest against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Josh Johnson to start in Week 17

Josh Johnson will start in Week 17 against the Cowboys with Jayden Daniels and Marcus Mariota out.

Fantasy Impact

Johnson will get the crack the starting job, and while he’s serviceable as a backup, he does limit the upside of the rest of the offense and he is not a good streaming candidate. Jeff Driskel will back up Johnson.
