Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Three touches Week 5
Johnson rushed once for one yard and caught two of three targets for nine yards during Sunday's 37-34 win against the Colts.
Jacksonville split playing time in the backfield fairly evenly, as Johnson played 13 offensive snaps compared to 23 for Tank Bigsby and 22 for Travis Etienne. Bigsby has taken hold of a larger role as the season has progressed, with he and Etienne now appearing to be in a timeshare. Johnson remains locked in as the No. 3 tailback and likely won't have a significant role if the other two can stay healthy.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Non-factor in loss
Johnson rushed two times for zero yards in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Texans.
Johnson played 12 of the Jaguars 58 offensive snaps in the contest, behind both Travis Etienne (30) and Tank Bigsby (17). With such limited playing time and touches, the 28-year-old does not hold much fantasy value as the Jaguars third-string running back. Johnson and the Jaguars will square off against the Colts in Week 5.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Gets two carries Week 3
Johnson rushed twice for 12 yards in Monday's 47-10 loss to the Bills.
Johnson played 12 of the Jaguars 71 offensive snaps in the contest, behind Travis Etienne (49) and ahead of Tank Bigsby (9). Like the entire Jaguars offense, the veteran running back was unable to produce in his opportunities. Johnson should remain far off the fantasy radar moving forward, and it's unclear if he would be prioritized ahead of Bigsby if Etienne were to miss time at any point.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: More involved Week 2
Johnson carried five times for 26 yards during Sunday's 18-13 loss to the Browns.
The 28-year-old didn't play a snap during the season opener, but he operated as Jacksonville's No. 2 tailback during Sunday's contest. Tank Bigsby filled that role Week 1 but suffered a shoulder injury against Cleveland, though he was able to return to the contest. Johnson was the only Jacksonville tailback besides starter Travis Etienne to play any offensive snaps, and it's unclear how much of a role Bigsby's injury played in the backfield hierarchy. Johnson's playing time and production against the Browns should be the expectation if he retains the No. 2 job, so there's limited fantasy appeal while Etienne remains healthy.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: No snaps Week 1
Johnson was active but didn't play any snaps during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Dolphins.
The 28-year-old saw the field in all 17 games last season, but he was limited to bench duty in the 2024 season opener as No. 2 tailback Tank Bigsby played 32 percent of the offensive snaps. Johnson isn't likely see much playing time while Bigsby and starter Travis Etienne remain healthy.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Minor role in Saturday's exhibition
Johnson carried three times for 12 yards and caught his lone target for nine yards during Saturday's preseason game against the Buccaneers.
The 28-year-old re-signed with Jacksonville on a one-year deal in the spring and has eight carries for 43 yards and two receptions for 32 yards through two preseason games. Starter Travis Etienne sat out Saturday's contest, and Tank Bigsby instead started the game and appears to be the favorite for the backup job. Johnson totaled 41 carries for 108 yards and 10 receptions for 140 yards last season, and he's unlikely to be more involved in 2024, if he even makes the season-opening roster.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Staying with Jacksonsville
Johnson is re-signing with the Jaguars on a one-year deal, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Johnson operated as the team's No. 3 running back for the majority of last season, seeing limited opportunities behind Travis Etienne and Tank Bigsby. It likely didn't help that the South Florida product averaged just 2.6 yards per carry on 41 attempts across his 17 appearances. He'll likely head into the Jaguars' offseason program working to hold onto his third-string role in 2024.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Finishes season in No. 3 role
Johnson carried once for minus-one yard versus the Titans in Week 18. He played in all 17 games and had 41 rushes for 108 yards and 10 catches for 140 yards this season.
The 27-year-old opened and closed the campaign as Jacksonville's No. 3 tailback, though he did have a few weeks in the middle of the season where he worked in the No. 2 role ahead of rookie Tank Bigsby. Johnson will become a free agent during the offseason and will likely look for a new home as a backup tailback in 2024.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Diminishing role
Johnson had three carries for zero yards and returned one kickoff for 22 yards during Sunday's 26-0 win against Carolina.
Jacksonville running backs received 29 carries in Sunday's blowout, with both Travis Etienne and Tank Bigsby in double digits. Johnson played just 12 offensive snaps and may have dropped to No. 3 on the backfield depth chart.

Jaguars' D'Ernest Johnson: Minimal role Week 16
Johnson rushed once for two yards during Sunday's 30-12 loss to the Buccaneers.
Jacksonville fell behind early and rushed the ball 13 times in the blowout defeat, with just seven of those carries going to running backs. Johnson has a solid grip on the No. 2 tailback job but isn't likely to be major factor in the offense down the stretch with starter Travis Etienne healthy.
