Ty Johnson: Recovering from pec injury
Johnson announced via his Instagram account that he recently suffered a pectoral injury, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Johnson was released by the Jets with a non-football injury designation in April after he tore his pectoral while working out on his own. After he followed the advice of the team and underwent surgery, New York elected to let him go. The running back played in 17 games last season, recording 160 yards and a score on 30 carries while reeling in 12 catches for 88 yards. Once healthy, Johnson will likely get another opportunity to crack an active roster.

Jets' Ty Johnson: Back with the Jets
Johnson is signing a one-year deal to remain with the Jets, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
In 17 games with the Jets during the 2022 season, Johnson recorded 30 carries for 160 yards and one touchdown, while adding 12 catches (on 24 targets) for 88 yards. Now that he's back with the team for 2023, Johnson is slated to reprise his depth role in New York's backfield behind Breece Hall (knee), Michael Carter and Zonovan Knight. The 2019 sixth-rounder is also a key special teamer for the Jets, per Cimini.

Jets' Ty Johnson: Minimal role throughout 2022
Johnson rushed five times for 12 yards and caught two of three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 11-6 loss to the Dolphins. He wrapped up the 2022 season with 30 carries for 160 yards and one touchdown, as well as 12 catches for 88 yards on 24 targets.
Johnson set career lows in both rushing and receiving yards in his fourth NFL season, though he averaged a career-high 5.3 yards per carry. The 25-year-old running back out of Maryland will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Jets' Ty Johnson: Leading rusher in Seattle
Johnson carried the ball eight times for 46 yards and caught one of five targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 23-6 loss to the Seahawks.
It was a nightmarish performance from the entire Jets offense in a must-win game, and Johnson wound up leading the team in rushing yards. It's only the second time all season he's topped 17 rushing yards, and with New York now eliminated from playoff contention, it's not clear how the backfield workload will be split between Johnson, Zonovan Knight and Michael Carter in Week 18 against the Dolphins.

Jets' Ty Johnson: Seven yards on TNF
Johnson rushed twice for seven yards and wasn't targeted in Thursday's 19-3 loss to Jacksonville.
Johnson's meager rushing total was enough to lead all Jets running backs, as New York's banged-up offensive line failed to open up any holes. With Zach Wilson struggling mightily, New York inserted the Taysom Hill-like Chris Streveler under center in the third quarter, and Streveler wound up leading the team with 54 rushing yards.
