Quick answer
WatchJohnson caught 12 passes for 197 yards in 2025, finishing WR123. He scored 40% more than his touches said he should. Recent form cooled from WR106 to WR123 — watch whether that's noise or a real step down. Played a short 2025 (9 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
