2023 Fantasy Outlook
Johnson has served as Washington's nickelback at times but likely will be only fourth or fifth on the depth chart at cornerback to start 2023. The Commanders brought in first-round pick Emmanuel Forbes to join Kendall Fuller and Benjamin St-Juste for their top three at the position. Read Past Outlooks
Available for Week 1
Johnson (shoulder) wasn't listed on the Commanders' injury report Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Johnson strained his rotator cuff after being slammed to the ground by Ravens tight end Mark Andrews during a joint practice session in training camp. He registered career highs in tackles (29) and pass deflections (nine) in 11 games last season and will provide key depth for a secondary headlined by Kendall Fuller, Emmanuel Forbes, Darrick Forrest and Kamren Curl.
