Johnson is Packers' best RB but faces tough Vikings defense limiting upside.

Johnson is statistically the Packers' best running back this season, averaging 4.10 yards per carry on 42 attempts—significantly better than Josh Jacobs' 2.22 YPC and MarShawn Lloyd's 2.61 YPC. Johnson boasts a 15% explosive run rate (Jacobs and Lloyd both below 4%) and ranks 10th-highest among running backs with 20+ touches in missed tackles forced per attempt. However, facing the Vikings presents a daunting matchup; Minnesota allows the second-fewest schedule-adjusted fantasy points to running backs and ranks eighth-best in EPA against the run. Over the last three weeks, the Vikings have given up at least 95 yards to Jonathan Taylor, Jahmyr Gibbs, and James Cook.
