John Johnson: Faces three-game suspension
John Johnson was suspended three games Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.The reason for Johnson's suspension wasn't immediately disclosed. The 2017 third-round pick isn't currently signed to a team, and he likely won't get an opportunity until Week 4 at the earliest. Johnson suffered a fractured scapula in Week 2 last season and didn't return until the playoffs. Once he serves his suspension, the 29-year-old safety has a decent chance to find a roster spot due to his past starting experience.

Rams' John Johnson: Activated Tuesday
John Johnson (shoulder) was activated from injured reserve by the Los Angeles Rams on Tuesday.The safety had already been designated to return earlier in the day. Johnson, who landed on IR on Sept. 18 after suffering a hairline fracture of his scapula in Week 2, has actually been healthy for weeks, but the Rams used up their designations for return during the regular season and had to wait for their two available postseason designations, per Cameron DaSilva of USA Today. Johnson's practice status will be worth monitoring ahead of Monday night's wild-card matchup with the Vikings, but he appears on track to play.

Rams' John Johnson: Cleared to practice
The Los Angeles Rams designated John Johnson (shoulder) for return from injured reserve Tuesday.Johnson was placed on IR on Sept. 18 after suffering a hairline fracture of his scapula in a Week 2 loss to Arizona, but Cameron DaSilva of USA Today relays that the safety has been healthy for weeks. However, because the Rams had exhausted its amount of eligible designations for return during the regular season, the team couldn't open Johnson's 21-day practice window until this week, as Los Angeles is now able to designate two additional players for return from reserve lists during the postseason. Assuming Johnson is a full participant in practice this week, he could be added back to the 53-man roster in advance of Monday's wild-card round game against the Vikings.

Rams' John Johnson: Re-ups with Los Angeles
The Los Angeles Rams announced Thursday that John Johnson has agreed to re-sign with the team.Johnson suited up for all 17 regular-season games with Los Angeles last season, but he played a reduced role at safety. His 490 defensive snaps would've been a career-low mark, save for the 2019 season, when he played 403 snaps across just six games. The veteran saw an uptick in snaps after the team's Week 10 bye, however, eventually earning an every-down role. Now, Johnson either stands to reprise a reserve job or to compete with Russ Yeast for a starting gig during training camp.
