Johnson entered the Jets' 45-30 loss to the Colts on Thursday night for Mike White (forearm) with 13:24 remaining in the second quarter and completed 27 of 41 passes for 317 yards with three touchdowns and one interception. He also rushed four times for 18 yards.

Johnson's highly circuitous career took yet another interesting twist Thursday night with a surprisingly productive showing in relief. The veteran was able to lead three scoring drives on consecutive possessions in the second half, finding Elijah Moore, Ty Johnson and Ryan Griffin for his trio of touchdown tosses. Johnson appeared to be on the verge of authoring yet another successful march when a batted pass led to an interception at the Colts' seven-yard line with 45 seconds remaining. Zach Wilson (knee) could have a chance to play in the Week 10 matchup against the Bills a week from Sunday, but if neither the first-round pick nor White are ready for that contest, Johnson would presumably be in line for a spot start.
