What It Means:

Johnson exited Week 8 to be evaluated for a concussion but was cleared to return. Coming out of the bye week, he should be rested and ready to go against the Lions on Sunday. He and Isaiah Crowell will continue splitting backfield work for the Browns, but Johnson could benefit from a negative game script as Detroit is a double-digit favorite. The third-year back leads the team with 36 receptions and 324 yards this season.

numberFire's models project Johnson to score 9.6 FanDuel points at a cost of $5,500 versus the Lions, making him the RB27 in our Week 10 fantasy rankings with a projection of 5.5 carries for 24.0 yards and 0.11 touchdowns with 4.6 catches for 37.8 yards and 0.09 touchdowns.
