What the analysts are saying

Johnson was technically a non-participant at Buffalo's practice on Tuesday, but he seems to be progressing well with his recovery and has resumed running. The team isn't certain whether or not he will be ready for Week 1 at this point, but his status doesn't have much of an impact for fantasy purposes.
