Collin Johnson News
New York Giants wide receiver Collin Johnson (Achilles), who tore his right Achilles during a standout training camp last summer, said he is already running on turf and is excited about returning even stronger in 2023. Johnson has more rehab to do, but he's making encouraging progress. We'll never know how involved the 25-year-old would have been in New York's passing attack this year after he caught 11 of his 21 targets for 105 yards and no touchdowns in 12 games (one start) for the G-Men in his second NFL season in 2021. Johnson could have the opportunity for a sizeable role in the offense next season if he stays healthy and impresses again this summer, but he'll remain off the fantasy radar for now.
New York Giants wide receiver Collin Johnson (Achilles) tore his Achilles in training camp practice on Wednesday, according to the team. It's a tough break, as Johnson had impressed this summer and looked primed for serious playing time. Instead, he'll miss the entire 2022 campaign. In two preseason games, he caught 10 passes for 123 yards. It comes on the same day that the Giants reinstated Sterling Shepard, who tore his Achilles last year, from the Physically Unable to Perform list. New York's receiver room was decimated by injuries in 2021, so Johnson's injury is more of the same. Kadarius Toney (hamstring) has been slowed by an injury in camp, but he projects as the highest-upside Giants wideout with quarterback Daniel Jones back healthy this year.
New York Giants wide receiver Collin Johnson (leg) was carted off the practice field Wednesday due to an apparent right leg injury. Johnson is the latest Giants wideout to sustain an ailment, with the group already down Kadarius Toney (hamstring), Darius Slayton (undisclosed) and C.J. Board (ribs), while Sterling Shepard (Achilles) is still working his way back. Johnson recorded 11 catches for 105 yards over 12 games (one start) last season, pitching in as injuries decimated the team's depth chart. The high volume of players sidelined would elevate the DFS appeal of Kenny Golladay and Wan'Dale Robinson come Week 1, although Daniel Jones faces an uphill battle with so many weapons unavailable. Further updates on Johnson's status will be provided as they become available.
