Terps in the NFL: Ty Johnson has career performance

New York Jets running back Ty Johnson had one of the best games of his career on Sunday.

Johnson ran the ball four times for 15 yards, behind starter Michael Carter, against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals entered the game as the No. 1 team in the AFC.

The third-year running back stood out in the passing game with backup quarterback Mike White starting for the injured Zach Wilson. Johnson caught five passes for a career-high 71 yards and he also registered his first career receiving touchdown.

He used impressive agility and balance to remain in bounds and break a few tackles to cross the pylon and he built off of a great performance last week when he caught six passes for 65 yards.
