Josh Johnson - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Enters for final possession Johnson played three of the Ravens' 59 snaps on offense in Monday's 41-31 win over the Buccaneers.

Impact Johnson entered the game after the two-minute warning for the Ravens' final possession of the night, handing the ball off to Justice Hill three times before Baltimore punted. The 38-year-old's snaps will continue to be limited to late-game garbage-time scenarios while reigning MVP Lamar Jackson is healthy.

Struggles in preseason opener Johnson completed four of 12 passes for 62 yards and gained 11 rushing yards on two carries in Friday's 16-13 preseason loss to the Eagles.

Impact The defenses were ahead of the offenses for both teams, but Johnson in particular struggled to move the ball as he got the start while Lamar Jackson and the rest of the Ravens' first-team offense got the night off. The 38-year-old journeyman is set as Jackson's backup in his second stint with Baltimore, but Johnson would offer little fantasy upside if he were forced into action in the regular season.

Impact Johnson spent last season as Baltimore's third-string quarterback, but the 38-year-old veteran appears in good position to enter the 2024 campaign as the No. 2 option behind Jackson. His primary competition will come from rookie sixth-round pick Devin Leary, with undrafted rookie Emory Jones likely slated enter Friday's contest last among Ravens quarterbacks.

49ers vs. Eagles highlights: Philly dominates NFC Championship Game

Won't return to Sunday's game Johnson (concussion) won't return to Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Eagles.

Impact With Johnson having been ruled out for the rest of the contest, Brock Purdy is back in the game, despite dealing with a right elbow injury. Prior to his exit, Johnson completed seven of his 13 passing attempts for 74 yards and carried two times for two yards while also losing a fumble.

Evaluated for concussion Johnson is being evaluated for a concussion during Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Eagles.

Impact Johnson had been pressed into action after Brock Purdy suffered a right elbow injury. Now, Johnson has exited the context, with Purdy back at QB for the 49ers for the time being.

Expected to remain in backup role Johnson will likely remain the 49ers' backup quarterback for Thursday's game against the Seahawks with Brock Purdy (oblique/ribs) listed as questionable but expected to start, Adam...

Impact Johnson played 11 snaps on offense in relief of the banged-up Purdy in the 49ers' 35-7 win over the Buccaneers, completing one of two pass attempts for 10 yards while carrying twice for three yards. Though Purdy was listed as a limited practice participant Monday through Wednesday and will presumably be at something less than 100 percent health Thursday, he looks set to play through the pain for what will be his second straight start since Jimmy Garoppolo (foot) suffered what was likely a season-ending injury in the Week 13 win over the Dolphins.

Back with 49ers The 49ers signed Johnson off the Broncos' practice squad Tuesday.

Impact This marks Johnson's fourth stint with the 49ers in some capacity, but he now is only one snap away from getting his first game action with the team. On Sunday, Jimmy Garoppolo likely was lost for the season due to a broken foot, setting the stage for Brock Purdy to take over the offense. But Purdy was in need of an experienced hand behind him, and Johnson has been called upon to do just that. In 37 appearances (nine starts) between six organizations, Johnson has a 58.1 completion percentage, averaged 6.4 yards per attempt and compiled a 13:16 TD:INT.

DECEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Slated to join 49ers The 49ers plan to sign Johnson to their 53-man roster, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Johnson has spent most of the year on the Broncos' practice squad, but the 49ers need help at quarterback after Jimmy Garoppolo sustained a season-ending foot injury Sunday. It seems likely that the 49ers will utilize Brock Purdy as their starting quarterback, but Johnson should provide a veteran presence in the locker room with the ability to fill in if Purdy struggles or gets hurt.

DECEMBER 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Lands back on practice squad Johnson reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Johnson was active but did not play after being elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's loss to the Jets. The veteran quarterback served as Denver's No. 2 quarterback behind Brett Rypien, as Russell Wilson was sidelined with a Grade 2 hamstring injury Week 7. Johnson completed 57 of his 85 passes for 634 yards and five touchdowns to two interceptions over four games between the Ravens and Jets last season, and he should continue to serve as the Broncos' quasi-backup quarterback if Wilson can't return Week 8 versus the Jaguars.

Impact Russell Wilson (hamstring) has been ruled out from the game, which has shaken up Denver's quarterback room. Brett Rypien will get the chance to start his second career game, while Johnson will be active for his first game of the campaign.

OCTOBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Underwhelming performance in loss Johnson completed eight of 16 passes for 70 yards in Saturday's 42-15 loss to the Bills.

Impact Johnson had a quiet day in Saturday's game against the Bills, opening the door for fellow quarterback Brett Rypien to showcase his abilities as the two compete for the No. 2 spot behind Russell Wilson. Though Johnson was impressive in Denver's first preseason game against Dallas, his lackluster showing Saturday may give Rypien a chance to make the competition closer. This is especially true since Rypien looked sharp, completing 22 of 26 passes for 191 yards and a touchdown. Johnson appears to be the favorite to be the backup once the season starts, but the Broncos' third preseason game against Minnesota on Aug. 27 will be an opportunity for the 36-year-old to prove he deserves that spot.
