Picks off Cook in Week 15 win
Johnson tallied five solo tackles and three pass defenses, including an interception, during the Jaguars' 48-20 win over the Jets on Sunday.
Analysis: Johnson started in the six games prior to Week 15, though he worked in a rotational role in the secondary behind starting safeties Eric Murray and Andrew Wingard. Johnson ended up playing more defensive snaps than the Jaguars' two starting safeties, and he closed Sunday's blowout win by picking off Brady Cook on a pass intended for Arian Smith late in the fourth quarter. It was Johnson's third interception of the season, which surpasses his total number of picks over the first two years of his…read more

Logs season-high tackle total
Johnson recorded eight tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 36-19 win versus the Colts.
Analysis: Johnson tied for his team's lead in tackles in Week 14 and compiled eight tackles for the first time since Week 5 of the 2024 season. His role in Week 15 versus the Jets could mostly depend on the availability of regular starting safety Andrew Wingard (concussion).

Cleared to play
Johnson (elbow) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: Johnson's elbow injury limited him in practice Wednesday and Thursday, but a full practice Friday was enough to clear him for Sunday's game. The strong safety logged 1.0 sacks in last Sunday's win against the Cardinals, and his health is critical in the absence of former starter Eric Murray (neck).

Limited to open week
Johnson (elbow) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Johnson is dealing with an apparent elbow injury, and he was unable to log a full practice to open the week. The safety's ability to practice in any capacity is a positive sign, and he'll have two more opportunities to log a full practice prior to Sunday's matchup with the Titans.

Continues to fill in for Murray
Johnson recorded two tackles (one solo), one pass defensed and one interception in Sunday's 35-6 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Johnson has seen his snap count and production tick up in the absence of Eric Murray (neck). He had a relatively quiet performance, though he had a combined 13 tackles across two games before Sunday's effort. Johnson also had his second interception of the season, which he managed to return for 44 yards to set up a touchdown in the fourth quarter.

Makes impact in Week 10 loss
Johnson recorded six tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a defensed pass in Sunday's loss to Houston.
Analysis: Johnson notched his first sack of the season -- and the second of his career -- when he brought down Davis Mills just before halftime. Johnson also tallied his second-highest tackle total of the campaign. The third-year safety has 28 tackles and two defensed passes (including an interception) through nine games this season.

Improves in year two
Johnson recorded 73 total tackles and two passes defended over 17 games in 2024.
Analysis: Johnson served as the Jaguars' top reserve safety in 2024 and saw plenty of playing time, logging 684 defensive snaps and eight starts across his 17 appearances. The Texas A&M product drastically improved his tackle total from his rookie season (17 to 73); however, he recorded fewer passes defended (three to two), interceptions (two to zero) and forced fumbles (one to zero) despite the increased playing time. With Andre Cisco set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, Johnson…read more
