Week 2 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Roschon Johnson had a pretty strong debut as a rookie. He ran five times for 20 yards and a touchdown, but he also had a team-high (tied) seven targets, finishing with six catches for 35 yards. Johnson ended up leading the backfield in playing time as well as he saw 29 snaps compared to Khalil Herbert's 27 and D'Onta Foreman's 21. It should be noted, though, that five of Johnson's targets (and his TD) came on the final two drives of the game while the Bears were facing a large deficit. So Johnson's usage will likely revolve around the game script. In Week 2 he faces a tough Bucs defense that gave up the 8th-fewest fantasy points to running backs last season. Johnson should be viewed as a low-end RB3/flex option in Week 2.
