Juwan Johnson Primed To Step Up On TNF

The New Orleans Saints will be down several key players especially on the offensive side of the ball as receivers Michael Thomas, Jarvis Landry, tight end Adam Trautman, and lineman Andrus Peat have already been ruled out. Getting rookie sensation Chris Olave back will help the team, however seeing former wide receiver now tight end Juwan Johnson get the majority of the snaps could be the opportunity Johnson has been waiting for.

Johnson has improved as a run blocker and has continued to out snap Adam Trautman in 4 of the first six games this season 67.
