With Jordyn Tyson sidelined for potentially multiple months to start the year, Johnson is once again in position to be the Saints' de facto WR2 to start the year. He finished the 2025 season at 12th in both target share and air yards share among tight ends.

Negative signalRole

Johnson positioned as Saints' WR2 with Tyson out; strong early-season target share.

With Jordyn Tyson sidelined for potentially multiple months to start the year, Johnson is once again in position to be the Saints' de facto WR2. He finished the 2025 season at 12th in both target share and air yards share among tight ends and took a big step for fantasy purposes once Tyler Shough took over at quarterback. Johnson might fade in the second half of the year once Tyson returns, but that's a problem easily solved via the waiver wire.
