Johnson rushed once for minus-1 yard and added one catch for 33 yards on two targets in Thursday's 31-10 win over the Dolphins. Johnson watched James Cook score three first-half touchdowns, while rookie Ray Davis got most of the mop-up duty with the game out of reach, finishing with nine carries to Johnson's one. While it's a positive that Johnson is no longer bothered by the knee injury he picked up in the season opener, he seems to have fallen to third on Buffalo's running-back depth chart heading into a Week 3 visit from the Jaguars.

Johnson (knee) does not have an injury designation for Thursday's game against the Dolphins. Johnson exited the Bills' Week 1 win over the Cardinals with a knee issue, but the running back was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's walk-through session and will be available to face Miami. He's thus slated to continue to see complementary work along with Ray Davis, behind top back James Cook. In that capacity, Johnson's fantasy upside is limited.

Johnson exited Sunday's game against the Cardinals with a knee injury, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports. Prior to his exit from the contest, Johnson carried twice for seven yards. In his absence, James Cook and Ray Davis are available to handle Buffalo's RB duties.

Johnson secured a spot on Buffalo's 53-man roster Tuesday, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports. Johnson was one of three running backs to make the team, joining starter James Cook and rookie fourth-round draft pick Ray Davis. Johnson and Davis are expected to split backup duties. Cook and Davis are listed at 210 and 220 pounds, respectively, so both backups are better suited for short-yardage work than the 190-pound Cook, though 237-pound quarterback Josh Allen often calls his own number in such situations.

Johnson carried the ball once for six yards in Saturday's preseason win over the Steelers. He was not targeted in the passing game. Johnson was and perhaps still is in the running to be James Cook's primary backup, but he hurt his hamstring in late July and missed the first preseason game, then played just seven snaps Saturday. Rookie Ray Davis looks like the favorite for the job now, though the Bills could mix and match when Cook needs a breather due to the differing skill sets of Johnson and Davis. It's worth noting that undrafted rookie Frank Gore ran well Saturday, logging eight carries for 41 yards, while veteran Darrynton Evans ran seven times for 37 yards.
