Top Juwan Johnson News

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Spotted running

    Johnson (foot) ran on a side field at Wednesday's practice, Jeff Nowak of The Big 870 New Orleans reports.

    While it's still unclear whether Johnson will be ready to play by Week 1, his quick return to physical activity after mid-June surgery at least suggests his foot injury was relatively minor and not something more serious like a Jones fracture.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Shows progress with side work

    Johnson (knee) jogged and worked off to the side during Monday's practice, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

    Johnson was first spotted at training camp Friday, and while he hasn't progressed to sprinting or anything along those lines, his presence on the field less than a month and a half after foot surgery suggests the rehab process is going well. He seemingly suffered the injury during June minicamp, with reports at the time calling the tight end uncertain for Week 1. That's probably still accurate, as he remains on the active/PUP list with six weeks to go until the Saints' season opener against Carolina on Sunday, Sept. 8.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Lands on PUP list ahead of camp

    The Saints placed Johnson (foot) on the active/PUP list Thursday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    Johnson remains sidelined while recovering from foot surgery relating to an issue he seemingly suffered during June minicamp. Terrell reports that updates on Johnson's recovery have been positive, but that he's expected to begin camp by working off to the side. Once cleared to practice Johnson will be eligible to come off the PUP list at any point during camp or the preseason, but it remains to be seen whether he'll be ready for Week 1. Foster Moreau and Taysom Hill figure to handle more first-team reps while Johnson is away from the practice field, while Jesper Horsted, Tommy Hudson, Michael Jacobson and Dallin Holker could also benefit from increased opportunities.

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Needs foot surgery

    Johnson will have foot surgery next week and be out for a while, but he has a chance to be ready for the start of the season, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Johnson seemingly suffered the injury during June minicamp and now figures to miss most or all of training camp and the preseason. His upcoming absence will leave more first-team reps for Foster Moreau and Taysom Hill, neither of whom is a clean fit for Johnson's role as the passing-down tight end. Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports that the Saints are working out TE Sal Cannella, who starred in the UFL this spring and led the league's tight ends in yards (496) and touchdowns (six).

  • Saints' Juwan Johnson: Injures lower leg

    Johnson recently suffered a lower leg injury and is expected to miss "a good amount of time," Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Details on the injury haven't been reported, with Underhill only noting that he hasn't heard that the injury will impact Johnson's availability for the start of the regular season. It sounds like Johnson may not be ready for the start of training camp, in which case Foster Moreau and Taysom Hill likely would get more snaps with the first-team offense. A calf injury cost Johnson four games last season, and he generally had a quiet year until exploding over the final four weeks for 216 yards and three touchdowns on 24 targets. Prior to that, he had 152 yards and one TD in nine games.
