Rookie Johnson showed promise with 44 receiving yards; could see increased snaps.

Chiefs rookie running back Emmitt Johnson quietly turned in a solid outing in Week 1 despite limited rushing attempts (24 yards on eight carries). He showed smooth open-field running and cutting ability on two screen passes for 44 yards, displaying elite moves on catch-and-run plays. With Kenneth Walker receiving 26 total touches, it will be interesting to see if Walker's workload helps get Johnson more snaps going forward. The source suggests that having another back with the potential to be an impact-making player will only make the team stronger down the stretch.
