Dolphins sign RB Duke Johnson to active roster

Dec 20, 2021

One day after running for 102 yards and two touchdowns, RB Duke Johnson is being signed to the Miami Dolphins’ active roster, per his agent Drew Rosenhaus.

Fantasy Impact:

Johnson ran 22 times for 107 yards and two scores, so this isn't a surprise. Gaskin got 10 carries for 54 yards but it looks like Duke may be getting another chance to prove he can be a lead back. Miami gets a tough Saints defense in Week 16 on a Monday night game so it remains to be seen if Johnson can come close to these numbers again. If you're hurting at RB heading into the fantasy semifinals, Duke is at least worth a pickup.

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
