Johnson finished as PPR WR67 in his 2025 rookie season, producing five double-digit fantasy-point outings as the offense navigated wide receiver injuries mid-season. He averaged just 1.08 YPRR across the full season and 1.27 YPRR during his productive Weeks 5-12 run, during which he scored five touchdowns. Johnson reportedly stood out at organized team activities and mandatory minicamp this year. He is competing for the wide-open WR3 role alongside Jalen McMillan and Ted Hurst.

Johnson stands out as potentially interesting with 96% route participation (versus Shepard's 67% against the Saints). Compared to Troy Franklin in profile—both run slot routes on roughly half their snaps and are incredibly lean—Johnson showed elite speed metrics despite a slow 40-yard dash time; he recorded the fastest tracked speed on go routes for the Seahawks quarterbacks. Drawing targets more than expected based on early-season volume.
