Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Two touches in blowout loss
D'Ernest Johnson carried twice for three yards during Sunday's 52-6 loss to the Lions.The 28-year-old suited up after being considered questionable with a hamstring injury, and he played just 27 percent of the offensive snaps. Johnson has five carries for 12 yards and one reception for 20 yards over the past four games, and he isn't likely to be significantly involved in the offense while Travis Etienne is healthy.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Set to play Sunday
D'Ernest Johnson (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in Detroit.Johnson played through a hamstring injury this past Sunday versus the Vikings, but despite fellow RB Tank Bigsby (ankle) departing after 10 snaps and two carries, the former didn't earn a touch on four offensive plays. Meanwhile, Travis Etienne dominated the Jacksonville Jaguars backfield to the tune of 12 touches for 43 yards from scrimmage on 30 snaps. With Bigsby ruled out for Week 11, Johnson will back up Etienne, but his usage likely will be limited.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Remains limited Thursday
D'Ernest Johnson (hamstring) was limited in Thursday's practice.Johnson has opened the week with back-to-back limited practices due to a hamstring injury, and unless he logs a DNP on Friday, he's expected to play through the issue against the Lions on Sunday. Johnson didn't record a stat across four offensive snaps in Week 10 against the Vikings, and in the two games prior he logged just three carries for nine yards. However, Johnson could see an increased workload in Week 11 if backup running back Tank Bigsby (ankle) is unable to play.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Cleared to play Sunday
D'Ernest Johnson (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Vikings.Johnson was added to the Jacksonville Jaguars' injury report Thursday and was a limited participant in the team's final two practices of the week, but the hamstring issue won't keep him from playing Sunday. He'll be available as a third option out of the backfield behind Travis Etienne and Tank Bigsby, with most of Johnson's usage likely to come on passing downs. Etienne made his return from a two-game absence in last week's loss to the Eagles, and Johnson consequently saw his snap share drop to 22 percent, his lowest since Week 5.

He practiced in a limited fashion both Thursday and Friday, but if he's unable to play through the issue Sunday, expect Travis Etienne and Tank Bigsby to handle all of the Jacksonville Jaguars' running back duties.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Reverts to No. 3 role
D'Ernest Johnson carried twice for six yards and failed to catch his lone target during Sunday's 28-23 loss to the Eagles.The 28-year-old played 13 offensive snaps as Jacksonville's backfield returned to full strength, though that was only slightly less playing time than starter Travis Etienne saw in his return from two-game absence. Johnson should continue to see sporadic opportunities as the Jacksonville Jaguars' depth back while Etienne and Tank Bigsby remain healthy.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Less involved as No. 2 back
D'Ernest Johnson carried once for three yards and caught one of two targets for 20 yards during Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Packers.The 28-year-old totaled 20 touches in the previous two games with Travis Etienne (hamstring) unavailable, but both of those contests were blowouts. Tank Bigsby dominated the backfield work Sunday as Jacksonville nearly took Green Bay to overtime. Johnson likely won't be a fantasy-relevant option but should continue to see some chances in passing situations until Etienne is back.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Solid in No. 2 role Sunday
D'Ernest Johnson rushed nine times for 38 yards and brought in three of four targets for 32 yards in the Jacksonville Jaguars' 32-16 win over the Patriots on Sunday in London.With Travis Etienne (hamstring) sidelined, both Tank Bigsby and Johnson bumped up a spot on the depth chart for the London matchup. Johnson played a clear second fiddle to his teammate, but he was effective in both his rushing and pass-catching roles. The veteran is a valuable insurance policy for Jacksonville if Etienne misses extended time, and Johnson would be set to reprise his No. 2 role in a Week 8 home matchup against the Packers if the latter remains out.
