- He told reporters on Saturday that the 2026 season will “probably” be his last, citing his parents’ health and a desire for more time with family.
- Johnson missed the final seven games of 2025 with a Lisfranc foot injury but agreed to a reworked contract that extends through 2027 and adds guarantees.
- The team used his camp absence to give first‑team reps to rookie Markel Bell as short‑term insurance and a potential long‑term successor.
