Spending time at tight end
Johnson spent time working at tight end this offseason, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Johnson was mostly asked to block when active on game days during his rookie year. The Saints have since talked about moving him from receiver to tight end, and Johnson practicing at that position during spring workouts all but confirms that notion. At 6-foot-4 and 231 pounds, Johnson will probably need to put on a little weight in order to excel as an in-line blocker, but the second-year Oregon product could potentially carve out a significant role as a pass catcher considering the Saints have…read more

Minimally involved in 2020
Johnson caught four passes for 39 yards in his first NFL season.
Analysis: The rookie out of Oregon barely saw the field in his inaugural campaign, and it will be difficult to project him for much more usage in his second season. Johnson produced his minimal numbers despite multiple injuries in the Saints' receiving corps throughout the season. If Michael Thomas, Deonte Harris, Tre'Quan Smith and Emmanuel Sanders can remain healthy in 2021, targets will become even more limited.

Sitting out Sunday
Johnson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's wild-card game against the Bears.
Analysis: Johnson played in each of the final five regular-season games, but he and Austin Carr will serve as healthy scratches for the first round of playoffs. Lil'Jordan Humphrey, who was elevated from the practice squad Saturday, will add depth behind Michael Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, Deonte Harris and Marquez Callaway.

Season-high four targets
Johnson was held without a catch on four targets in the Saints' 32-29 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.
Analysis: For the third week in a row, Johnson saw action on the active roster, and he drew a season-high four targets in Sunday's defeat. Even with increased opportunities, Johnson won't be on the fantasy radar when New Orleans takes on Minnesota in Week 16.

Bumps to active roster
The Saints signed Johnson to the active roster from the practice squad Saturday.
Analysis: Johnson looks set to see action in his third straight contest of the season, and his fifth game overall. He had one catch for 11 yards against the Eagles last weekend, but with Michael Thomas (ankle) now on IR, it's conceivable that New Orleans' depth wideouts could get more opportunities.

Active roster stint short-lived
Johnson reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Johnson only saw five snaps on the offensive side for New Orleans in Week 14, but he hauled in his lone target for an 11-yard gain. The rest of the Oregon product's involvement came on special teams, where he collected nine snaps. If Deonte Harris (neck) returns to the receiving corps Week 15, it would reduce Johnson's likelihood of carving out a game day role.

Back with active roster
The Saints elevated Johnson to the active roster Saturday.
Analysis: Johnson is being called up for the fourth time this season. Over the previous three games, Johnson caught just one pass for a five-yard gain. He'll add depth in Sunday's matchup against the Eagles.

Headed to practice squad
Johnson reverted back to New Orleans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Johnson was on the field for 20 offensive snaps and 13 on special teams Sunday against the Falcons, but he failed to record a catch. This marked the third game he's played in this season.

Rises from practice squad
The Saints elevated Johnson from the practice squad Saturday, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Marquez Callaway (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, and Deonte Harris (neck) is considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons. In turn, the Saints elevated both Johnson and Tommylee Lewis to the active roster to pad their depth at wide receiver. Johnson has suited up twice this season, recording one reception over 77 snaps on offense.

Sent back to practice squad
Johnson reverted to New Orleans' practice squad Monday after recording one catch for five yards during Sunday's 26-23 overtime win against the Bears, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Johnson's workload was certainly encouraging, as the 24-year-old led all Saints skill-position players in fielding 64 of 74 offensive snaps. His three targets were also tied for fourth most on the team, but New Orleans may be getting some of its perimeter weapons back this week in a road trip to Tampa Bay -- most notably, Michael Thomas (hamstring), who has potential to make his first appearance since the season opener after logging limited practice sessions Thursday and Friday of last week.

Adds depth at receiver
The Saints elevated Johnson to the active roster Saturday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Johnson, Austin Carr and Tommylee Lewis were all added to the Saints' active roster Saturday, as the team prepares to face the Bears on Sunday without Michael Thomas (hamstring), Marquez Callaway (ankle) or Emmanuel Sanders (COVID-19). Johnson wasn't targeted over 13 offensive snaps last week, but his role could grow against the Bears with Callaway out of the picture. Pinpointing one receiver to dominate seems like a fool's errand, though.

Dips back down to practice squad
Johnson reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: The Oregon product made his first career NFL appearance during Sunday's 27-24 win against the Panthers, fielding 19 percent of the offensive snaps with both Michael Thomas (hamstring/ankle) and Emmanuel Sanders (reserve/COVID-19 list) inactive for Week 7. Johnson did not garner a single target, however, as Marquez Callaway, Tre'Quan Smith and Deonte Harris picked up most of the slack at wide receiver.

Elevates from practice roster
The Saints elevated Johnson to the active roster Saturday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: The undrafted rookie out of Oregon is in line for his NFL debut. He gets the call because Michael Thomas (ankle/hamstring) and Emmanuel Sanders (COVID-19 list) won't suit up Sunday, so he'll add depth at wide receiver. In his senior collegiate season, Johnson posted a 30-467-4 line over eight games.

Clears waivers
Johnson cleared waivers Sunday and signed with the Saints' practice squad.
Analysis: Johnson spent the entire training camp in New Orleans after signing with the team as an undrafted free agent, but he couldn't make the 53-man roster. He's one of three wide receivers on the Saints' practice squad.
