Johnson signed a one-year deal with the Eagles on March 14. The 2021 seventh-round pick of the Eagles spent his first three plus seasons with the team before being waived last September. Johnson was claimed by the Giants and played in 12 games with his new team before suffering a knee injury and missing the last three contests of the regular season. The linebacker recorded four tackles (three solo) in 2024 and has played more on special teams than defense in all four of his NFL seasons.

The Giants placed Johnson (knee) on injured reserve Saturday. Johnson sustained a knee injury during last week's loss to the Ravens, and he did not practice before being ruled out ahead of this Sunday's game against the Falcons. The fourth-year linebacker totaled four tackles while serving as a core special-teamer in 12 games with the Giants.

Johnson exited Sunday's game against the Ravens due to a knee injury, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Johnson picked up a knee injury at some point during the first half.

Johnson was claimed off waivers by the Giants on Tuesday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports. Johnson was in the midst of his fourth season with the Eagles, primarily working as a contributor on special teams. It's likely the Giants brought him on board to handle a similar role while providing depth in their linebacker corps.
