D'Ernest Johnson - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football
3 years agoCleveland Browns running back D'Ernest Johnson broke out with a huge 146-yard, one-touchdown performance for his team in Week 7. Johnson was pushed into a starting role with Nick Chubb sidelined by a calf injury, but it appears that Chubb will be able to return to the field to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 8. If that does happen, Johnson will return to a backup role and most likely only operate as a breather back for the Browns against Pittsburgh. Provided Chubb doesn't experience any setbacks and does take the field in Week 8, Johnson will be nothing more than a low-end flex option in Week 8.
