Jaguars' Antonio Johnson: Ready to play Sunday
Rotowire
Johnson (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Bills in London.
The rookie fifth-round pick out of Texas A&M will dress for the first time all season after he had been inactive for the Jaguars' first four contests due to the hamstring injury. Even though he's suiting up Sunday, Johnson is buried on the depth chart at safety and is likely to see most of his snaps on special teams.

Jaguars' Antonio Johnson: Slide ends in Jacksonville
Rotowire
The Jaguars selected Johnson in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 160th overall.
Some draft pundits had Johnson as a possible early Day 2 selection, so it's a major surprise to see the Texas A&M product fall to the late fifth. Johnson's probably more of a box safety than a true cover option (one career INT in college), but he plays with plenty of speed (4.52 40-yard dash) and size (6-foot-2, 201 pounds), which should suit him well when matching up versus opposing tight ends. Expect Johnson to compete with Andrew Wingard and Daniel Thomas for the Jaguars' third safety spot.
