Finishes second season in Denver
Johnson played in 13 games during the 2023 campaign, finishing with 19 receptions on 30 targets for 284 yards and four touchdowns.
ANALYSIS
Johnson played in a depth role in the Broncos' wide receiver corps, limiting his opportunities throughout the season. Despite this fact, the wideout's four touchdowns were good for the second-highest total among all pass catchers in Denver. Johnson is under contract through the 2024 season and will become a restricted free agent in 2025. Heading into next season, Johnson may find it difficult to find the field consistently again if fellow receivers Courtland Sutton, Jerry Jeudy and Marvin Mims remain on the roster.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Opportunity awaits Week 17
Johnson, who has four touchdown receptions on 11 catches this season, could see an expanded role against the Chargers in Week 17 due to the Broncos' multiple receiver injuries.
ANALYSIS
The UCF product is thought to have plenty of potential, but he's been mired in a deep reserve role for most of his first two seasons. However, with Courtland Sutton already ruled out with a concussion and Jerry Jeudy and Marvin Mims carrying questionable tags due to an illness and a hamstring issue, respectively, Johnson could conceivably shoot all the way up to the top of the depth chart versus Los Angeles if his two teammates are ultimately ruled inactive.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Johnson had a quiet rookie campaign in 2022, finishing with just six catches on 14 targets for 42 yards and one touchdown while appearing in seven games. Under contract through the 2024 season, the 25-year-old wideout will hope to secure a position on the roster with a new coaching staff in 2023. Johnson would likely continue to struggle to see consistent playing time in a crowded receiver corps headlined by Jerry Jeudy, Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims and Marquez Callaway. However, the second-year receiver could provide solid depth if and when injuries become an issue during the season.
