Ty Johnson: Ty Johnson Taking Part in OTAs

After missing both of the Buffalo Bills' playoff games in January, running back Ty Johnson (ankle) is back to 100% health and has been taking part in the team's OTA practices this offseason, according to Jeffrey Barnes of the Bluefield Daily Telegraph. In his third year in Buffalo in 2025, the 28-year-old played in 17 regular-season games but saw only 50 rushing attempts for 200 yards and a career-high three touchdowns while adding 24 receptions for 263 yards and two more TDs on 33 targets. The former sixth-rounder by the Detroit Lions in 2019 out of Maryland will continue to be a sparsely used change-of-pace back in Buffalo (mostly on passing downs) behind starter James Cook III and alongside Ray Davis. If something were to happen to Cook, Davis, not Johnson, would most likely see the majority of early-down snaps for the Bills. With limited opportunities probably coming again in 2026, Johnson should go undrafted in most redraft leagues. In half-PPR formats, RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 73 RB for 2026.
