From the article

The Chiefs have been singing the fifth-round pick's praise since training camp. He has done everything the team has asked and done it well. However, with running back Kenneth Walker III running all over opposing defenses, Johnson has just 16 rushes for 56 yards and five receptions for 74 yards. The Chiefs have hinted that a larger role was coming for the rookie.

Johnson poised for expanded role after limited early-season usage behind Walker.

Fifth-round pick has earned praise from the Chiefs since training camp and has executed everything asked of him well. Currently limited to 16 rushes for 56 yards and 5 receptions for 74 yards through six weeks due to Kenneth Walker III's strong performance. Athlon Sports projects a bold prediction that Johnson sees his largest workload in Week 6 vs. the Chargers, suggesting the Chiefs have hinted at an expanded role coming for the rookie.
