Johnson's 128 receiving yards and a touchdown on five catches in Week 8. After all, he only played 19% of the snaps. The real shock is that he's still available in over 80% of leagues. The fifth-round rookie has been a must-add in all formats for a while, as the high-upside backup behind Kenneth Walker III.

Johnson showed 128 receiving yards and TD on limited snaps; high-upside stash one injury away from RB1.

Johnson posted 128 receiving yards and a touchdown on five catches in Week 8, though he only played 19% of snaps. The fifth-round rookie has been a must-add in all formats for a while as the high-upside backup behind Kenneth Walker III. After this week, Johnson might begin to provide some flex potential even with Walker healthy. As the midway point of the season approaches, he's one injury away from stardom and represents one of the best stashes to have on your bench.
