Bills Lean On Ty Johnson Through The Air In Win Over Detroit

Sunday, December 15, 9:50 PM

Buffalo Bills running back Ty Johnson caught five passes for 114 yards in the team's 48-42 win over the Detroit Lions. The veteran also rushed twice for nine yards. Buffalo's coaching staff clearly saw something on film when installing their game plan that suggested utilizing the third-down back. Johnson caught two passes for 57 yards on the team's opening drive. When the final whistle sounded, Johnson led the team in receiving yards. While he's been more involved in the offense recently, Johnson doesn't get enough touches for fantasy managers to feel good about starting him. He only needs to be added in deep leagues.

Steelers Add Jonathan Ward To Practice Squad

Tuesday, November 12, 1:40 PM

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed free-agent running back Jonathan Ward to their practice squad on Tuesday. Ward will return to the team's practice squad after being cut less than a week ago. The 27-year-old will continue to provide running back depth for the Steelers behind Najee Harris (ankle), Jaylen Warren and Cordarrelle Patterson while being well off the fantasy radar. The Central Michigan alum has actually appeared in four games for the Steelers this year in his first season with the team but has seen only five carries for 22 yards and hasn't been targeted in the passing game. Harris picked up a minor ankle injury in the Week 10 win over the Washington Commanders but is expected to play this Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens, so Ward will most likely stick on the practice squad in Week 11.
