  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Another limited practice

    Johnson (shoulder) was limited in practice Thursday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

    Johnson is operating with a cap on his practice reps this week, while Taysom Hill (rib) followed up a limited session Wednesday with full participation one day later. As such, Johnson has one more chance this week to get back to all activity or thus risk entering the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game at the Chargers.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Limited by shoulder issue

    Johnson practiced on a limited basis Wednesday due to a shoulder injury.

    Johnson previously dealt with a forearm issue during Week 5 prep, but he's been able to suit up in all seven games this season and earn at least a 50 percent snap share in five consecutive contests. He hasn't produced much during those five weeks, accruing a 13-110-0 receiving line in 17 targets, even with Taysom Hill (rib) sidelined for four of them. Both Johnson and Hill had caps on their practice reps Wednesday, so the statuses of both will need to be monitored as the week goes on.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Modest numbers despite absences

    Johnson secured three of six targets for 18 yards in the Saints' 33-10 loss to the Broncos on Thursday night.

    The veteran tight end couldn't take advantage of the absences of Chris Olave (concussion), Rashid Shaheed (knee) and Taysom Hill (ribs), although he did log a season-high target total. However, Johnson couldn't come close to the season-best 48 receiving yards he'd posted four days earlier against the Buccaneers, and his outlook figures to remain modest going into a Week 8 road matchup against the Chargers on Sunday, Oct. 27, a game which Olave and Hill are likely to be back for.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Logs three catches versus Tampa Bay

    Johnson caught all three targets for 48 yards during Sunday's 51-27 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Johnson logged a season-high in receiving yards, most of which came on a season-long 27-yard reception in the first quarter. He also had two other targets wiped off the board by penalties in the third and fourth quarters. The Saints to featured their tight ends more with rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler starting in place of an injured Derek Carr (oblique), as Foster Moreau also logged two receptions on two targets for 54 yards. Johnson's recent resurgence in the offense is encouraging for any fantasy owners who took a flier on him early in the season. However, he's still probably just a solid waiver-wire pickup rather than a dependable piece in week-to-week lineups. Johnson will look to log at least three targets for the fourth game in a row during the Saints' upcoming game versus Denver on Thursday Night Football.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Catches five passes Week 5

    Johnson reeled in all five targets for 31 yards during Monday's 26-13 loss to the Chiefs.

    The tight end got more involved Week 5, establishing season-high marks across the board, including in playing time (78 percent snap share). However, the 6-foot-4 pass catcher was still kept out of the end zone for a fourth game in a row. The Saints' passing game remains focused around Rashid Shaheed, Chris Olave and Alvin Kamara, with few others beyond that trio producing reliably in a given week. The Saints' game plans could change with Derek Carr expected to miss at least a couple weeks with an oblique injury sustained late in Monday's loss, but that may result in a more run-heavy offense that could leave even fewer targets available for Johnson.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Back to full participation

    Johnson (forearm) was a full participant in practice Friday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Johnson began Week 5 prep with a limited session Thursday, but his upgrade to full participation Friday puts him on track to avoid a designation for Monday's game against the Chiefs. Foster Moreau has been receiving the majority of playing time at tight end for the Saints, so Johnson will be tough to rely on Monday, despite Kansas City's struggles defending the position.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Opens week limited

    Johnson (forearm) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice session.

    Johnson may have picked up the injury during the Saints' 26-24 loss to the Falcons on Sunday. He'll have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation ahead of Monday's game against the Chiefs. Johnson has caught four passes (on six targets) for 39 yards and one touchdown through four regular-season games.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Breaks catchless streak

    Johnson caught two of three targets for 13 yards during Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Falcons.

    Johnson logged his first targets since the season opener versus Carolina. The 6-foot-4 tight end also would have finished with one more target and catch, as he had a 28-yard catch wiped off the board by an offensive holding penalty early in the third quarter. The 6-foot-4 tight end looked like a total non-factor and was overshadowed for playing time by Foster Moreau over the last two weeks. But Johnson played a season-high 67 percent of offensive snaps compared to 57 percent for Moreau in Week 4. Neither Johnson nor Moreau has had a consistent role in the receiving game so far this season, combining for 12 total targets over four games. There's not much reason to expect that their roles will increase during their next game versus Kansas City on Monday, Oct. 7.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Zero targets again Week 3

    Johnson tallied zero targets during Sunday's 15-12 defeat against Philadelphia.

    Johnson was a total non-factor in the passing game for the second week in a row. After catching an impressive toe-tap 16-yard touchdown Week 1, the fifth-year tight end has completely fallen out of the pass-catching rotation. What's worse, he appears to have been supplanted by Foster Moreau for the TE1 role, as the latter logged 40 offensive snaps Sunday compared to 28 for Johnson. The 6-foot-4 Johnson totaled 37 catches (on 59 targets) over 13 regular-season games with starting quarterback Derek Carr. However, it appears the tight-end position won't have nearly the same importance in the passing game under new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak. Johnson will look to work his way back into a more consistent role during this coming Sunday's road game against the division-rival Falcons.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Zero targets in blowout win

    Johnson had zero targets during Sunday's 44-19 win versus the Cowboys.

    Johnson was not listed as New Orleans' starting tight end for the second game in a row. Instead, Foster Moreau got the start once again despite coming back from a concussion sustained in last week's win over Carolina. Neither tight end logged any targets Sunday, as quarterback Derek Carr attempted just 16 passes while throwing for 243 yards and two touchdowns to one interception. Meanwhile, Taysom Hill logged one target and three carries before exiting with a chest issue that required further evaluation at a hospital postgame. Through two games, Johnson and Moreau have now logged three and four targets, respectively. While it's too soon to make any definitive projections, it appears that tight end may not be a position that's highlighted in the offense of new coordinator Klint Kubiak. It will be worth monitoring if either Johnson or Moreau see more targets during next Sunday's home game against the Eagles.
