Relegated to minor role on offense
Johnson finished the regular season with nine catches on 22 targets for 99 yards and no touchdowns. He caught his only target for 17 yards in two postseason contests.
ANALYSIS
Johnson began the campaign on New York's practice squad and got a permanent roster spot in mid-October. He ended up being active in a career-high 14 games but spent most of his time on the sidelines, particularly from Weeks 10-17, when he totaled just 46 offensive snaps and didn't record any catches or targets. Johnson heads into the offseason as a free agent, and considering his limited role with the Giants this season, his time in New York may be over after just one campaign.

2018
After logging 17 receptions for 277 yards and two touchdowns over the course of eight games in 2019, Johnson was re-signed by the Colts for the coming season. Injuries at the wideout position led to added opportunities for Johnson last year, but the 25-year-old figures to work behind T.Y. Hilton, Parris Campbell, Zach Pascal and Michael Pittman once Indy takes the field again. It's a playing context that makes Johnson a long shot to emerge as a reliable fantasy option in 2020.
