  • Rams' Desjuan Johnson: Active for divsional round

    Johnson (illness) is active for Sunday's divisional-round matchup versus the Bears

    Johnson missed Friday's practice with an illness, but it appears that it won't hold him back for the Rams' second playoff game. The 26-year-old has played in each of the last six games, including last week's wild-card win over Carolina, and he's tallied 13 tackles with two sacks over that span. Johnson should continue filling a backup role behind starting defensive end Braden Fiske.

  • Rams' Desjuan Johnson: Questionable for divisional round

    Johnson (illness) is questionable for Sunday night's divisional-round game against the Bears, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Johnson popped up as DNP on Friday, leaving his status in question for Sunday night. Johnson logged 28 percent of the defensive snaps in last Saturday's wild-card win over the Panthers, recording one solo tackle. Tyler Davis would be in line for more snaps if Johnson is unable to play Sunday.

  • Rams' Desjuan Johnson: Not playing Sunday

    Johnson (thumb) is inactive Sunday against the Eagles, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Johnson was considered doubtful for the game, so his inability to suit up doesn't come as a surprise. The rookie recently underwent thumb surgery, but he could return in Week 6 against the Cardinals.

  • Rams' Desjuan Johnson: Doubtful due to thumb issue

    Johnson is doubtful to play against the Eagles on Sunday due to a thumb injury, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

    Johnson recently had surgery on his thumb, and head coach Sean McVay has indicated that the rookie is doubtful to suit up Sunday. The 2023 seventh-round draft pick has played a limited role for Los Angeles this season, logging 10 defensive snaps and recording two tackles thus far.

  • Rams' Desjuan Johnson: Mr. Irrelevant

    The Rams selected Johnson in the seventh round of the NFL Draft, 259th overall.

    Johnson was the final pick of the 2023 NFL Draft. He played defensive tackle at Toledo but is expected to move to end as a pro due to a lack of size. The Rams added a couple pass rushers ahead of Johnson in the draft, so he may have a difficult time making the roster out of training camp.
