From the article

We haven't seen him consistently play to his elite combine numbers, but some of his catches in recent weeks show glimpses of a high-end athlete... He's stretched the seams multiple times and made defenses pay for playing Cover-2. The game has seemed to slow down for Johnson.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Johnson's late-season flashes and elite athleticism suggest high upside despite injury.

Johnson played two games after the mid-season report card, playing 73% and 89% of snaps respectively before landing on IR with a season-ending foot injury. In those two games, he caught 8 of 11 targets for 93 yards and was showing promise down the stretch. The source notes: 'We haven't seen him consistently play to his elite combine numbers, but some of his catches in recent weeks show glimpses of a high-end athlete... He's stretched the seams multiple times and made defenses pay for playing Cover-2. The game has seemed to slow down for Johnson.' He remains a high upside player with good foundation as a blocker.
