Giants' Theo Johnson: Continues quiet campaign in Week 10 loss
Johnson logged one catch (on three targets) for eight yards Thursday in a loss to the Commanders.
Johnson hasn't been able to get going in 2026, as he's finished with one or zero catches in six of his seven games so far. After working as New York's top tight end last season, he's been mostly an afterthought in the current campaign due to the arrival of Isaiah Likely, who went off for a 9-127-1 receiving line on a team-leading 11 targets Thursday. As long as Likely is healthy, Johnson won't have much appeal in most fantasy formats.

Giants' Theo Johnson: No targets in Week 9
Johnson wasn't targeted in Sunday's 19-11 win over the Eagles.
The tight end played just 12 offensive snaps, logging a 17.9 percent snap share against Philly. On the season, Johnson has just four catches for 55 yards and a touchdown on nine targets across six appearances. He has no fantasy appeal with Isaiah Likely healthy.

Giants' Theo Johnson: Full practice Wednesday
Johnson (neck) was a full participant at the Giants' practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Johnson appears to be back to full health after missing the team's last two contests while nursing a neck injury. The 25-year-old will be back in his No. 2 role at tight end behind starter Isaiah Likely against the Eagles on Sunday.

Giants' Theo Johnson: At practice Monday
Johnson (neck) participated during practice Monday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Johnson missed the Giants' last two games before their bye in Week 8 due to a neck injury, but it looks like the last week of rest may have benefitted him. His status on the Giants' first official injury report of the week Wednesday should shed more light on whether he'll be available in Week 9 at Philadelphia.

Giants' Theo Johnson: Won't play Sunday
Johnson (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Johnson's lack of participation in Friday's practice session appears to have been indicative of his playing status for Sunday's contest. The tight end will not be able to overcome his neck injury in time for Week 7 and will have to look towards the Giants' Week 9 contest against the Eagles after the bye.

Giants' Theo Johnson: Unlikely to play against Houston
Johnson (neck) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Texans.
Johnson's practice reps in each of the first two practices of Week 7 prep were limited due to a neck injury, and he was sidelined entirely for Friday's session. He's trending toward missing a second consecutive game, so Thomas Fidone and Chris Manhertz would both be in line for more work behind Isaiah Likely in the event that Johnson is ruled out for Sunday's contest.

Giants' Theo Johnson: Still limited at practice Thursday
Johnson (neck) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.
Johnson was back at practice Wednesday after being sidelined because of a neck injury in Week 6 versus the Saints, but another day later, it's still hindering him ahead of a Week 7 tilt at Houston. He'll probably have to log a full practice Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Giants' Theo Johnson: Back at practice Wednesday
Johnson (neck) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Johnson was practicing in a limited capacity in the leadup to the Giants' matchup versus the Saints in Week 6, but he ultimately downgraded to missing practice later in the week before sitting out that contest. He'll likely have to participate fully in practice Thursday or Friday to dodge taking an injury designation into the weekend.

Giants' Theo Johnson: Ruled out against New Orleans
Johnson (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Saints.
A neck injury limited Johnson's practice participation Wednesday and Thursday, but he was a DNP for Friday's session before being subsequently ruled out for Sunday's contest. In his absence, Chris Manhertz and Thomas Fidone are candidates to step into the TE2 role behind Isaiah Likely. Johnson's next chance to play is Week 7 against the Texans on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Giants' Theo Johnson: Dealing with neck injury
Johnson (neck) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday's injury report, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Johnson caught two of three passes for 35 yards during the Giants' 27-27 tie against the Commanders in Week 5, but he may have tweaked his neck at some point during the game. He would avoid an injury tag for Sunday's contest against the Saints if he can log a full practice in one of the next two days of practice.

Giants' Theo Johnson: Secures 11-yard TD in win
Johnson caught his lone target for an 11-yard touchdown in Sunday's 36-24 win over the Cardinals.
Johnson caught the third of Jameis Winston's three touchdowns, scoring from 11 yards out late in the third quarter to give the G-Men a 27-24 lead. Working more as a blocker alongside Isaiah Likely in a pass-catching role, Johnson has just two catches for 20 yards and a touchdown on six targets this season.

Giants' Theo Johnson: Four targets, zero catches in Week 2 loss
Johnson played 16 of the Giants' 58 offensive snaps but did not haul in any of his four targets during Monday's 28-6 loss to the Rams.
All four of Johnson's targets came in the first half, three of which were in the opening quarter. The third-year tight end failed to record a catch, but he did log a tackle on Trent McDuffie after the latter intercepted Jameis Winston midway through the second quarter. Johnson is firmly behind Isaiah Likely on the depth chart, though all of the Giants pass catchers figure to see their production dip with Winston under center instead of Jaxson Dart, the latter of whom could miss the rest of the season due to a knee injury.

Giants' Theo Johnson: Limited offensive production in Week 1
Johnson caught his only target for nine yards in Sunday night's 28-20 win over the Cowboys.
Johnson operated as a clear second-fiddle to Isaiah Likely at tight end in Week 1, with the latter reeling in all eight of his targets for 78 yards and two scores in the game. Johnson was on the field for only 32 of the team's 69 offensive snaps, and as long as Likely is available, he won't have much fantasy appeal this season.
