Ty Johnson flashed in a few key games for Buffalo last season, delivering explosive plays and touchdowns in a limited role. While he's unlikely to see consistent volume, his pass-catching ability gives him some deep-league appeal as veteran depth.

Ty Johnson, Buffalo Bills

The Bills used Johnson as a scheme player in some matchups last season, leading to some big plays and touchdowns. He beat the Lions with five catches for 114 yards in Week 5 while also surprising in two other matchups (46 combined yards with a touchdown and three catches and 70 combined yards with a score and two catches). In his other 17 games, Johnson had 283 yards with two touchdowns and 12 catches. 

Ty Johnson Fantasy Football Outlook:

Johnson provides veteran insurance at running back for Buffalo while offering the most upside catching the ball. He’ll be found in the free agent pool in most redraft formats.
