2023 Fantasy Outlook
There was no outlook written for Marcus Johnson in 2023. Check out the latest news below for more on his current fantasy value.
$Signed a one-year contract with the Giants in October of 2022.
Relegated to minor role on offense
WRNew York Giants
February 2, 2023
Johnson finished the regular season with nine catches on 22 targets for 99 yards and no touchdowns. He caught his only target for 17 yards in two postseason contests.
ANALYSIS
Johnson began the campaign on New York's practice squad and got a permanent roster spot in mid-October. He ended up being active in a career-high 14 games but spent most of his time on the sidelines, particularly from Weeks 10-17, when he totaled just 46 offensive snaps and didn't record any catches or targets. Johnson heads into the offseason as a free agent, and considering his limited role with the Giants this season, his time in New York may be over after just one campaign.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2019
2018
After logging 17 receptions for 277 yards and two touchdowns over the course of eight games in 2019, Johnson was re-signed by the Colts for the coming season. Injuries at the wideout position led to added opportunities for Johnson last year, but the 25-year-old figures to work behind T.Y. Hilton, Parris Campbell, Zach Pascal and Michael Pittman once Indy takes the field again. It's a playing context that makes Johnson a long shot to emerge as a reliable fantasy option in 2020.
Johnson underwent offseason surgery on a torn ligament in his right ankle which ended his 2018 season in October. He played in five games last season, catching six of his eight targets for 102 yards and a touchdown. However, he's in a battle for a reserve receiver role in camp and may not make the final roster.
Headed west with a ring, Johnson was traded from Philly and later signed to a one-year deal. One would think the Seahawks are impressed with Johnson's potential since they gave up elite pass rusher Michael Bennett in addition to a swap of picks. Still, Johnson largely is unproven with just five receptions for 45 yards and no touchdowns in 2017. With the additions of Brandon Marshall and Jaron Brown as well, Johnson likely will stay in a special teams role.
