Johnson was a 2-time All-Big Ten Selection in college, and finished his collegiate career with over 3,300 receiving yards and 33 touchdowns.

As a pro, it hasn't been as impactful for Johnson. In his first four seasons, the Minneapolis native has 48 catches for 529 yards and 2 scores, both of which coming in the Super Bowl season for the Buccaneers in 2020.

Now, Johnson will aim to resurrect his career with one of the best offensive minds in the game as his new Head Coach in Sean McVay.

The LA Rams currently have Cooper Kupp, Van Jefferson, and Ben Skowronek as their top wideouts at this stage of the offseason.

LA opens the 2023 season with a road matchup at Seattle on Sunday, September 10th.
