  Patriots | Three try out for New England     Tue Sep 28, 10:16 PM

Free-agent CBs DJ Daniel and Stephen Denmark and free-agent WR Anthony Johnson tried out for the New England Patriots Tuesday, Sept. 28.

Footballguys view: The Patriots are always looking for wide receiver help, and that's why they brought Johnson in for a tryout. They should be getting N'Keal Harry back in the near future. He's been on the reserved/Injured List because of a shoulder issue.

  Steelers | Anthony Johnson may be PS option    Wed Jul 1, 04:57 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers WR Anthony Johnson likely will be a strong candidate for the practice squad if he does make the final roster.

Footballguys view: Johnson came into the league as an undrafted free agent out of Buffalo in 2019. In two years with the Bulls (JUCO transfer) he caught 133 passes for 2,367 receiving yards and 25 touchdowns. The Buccaneers initially picked him up but he didn't stick with the team and spent most of his rookie season on the Chargers practice squad. At the beginning of 2020 the Steelers signed Johnson to a futures contract. He didn't test well in the pre-draft process, but Johnson can play out wide or in the slot where he has natural hands and a good feel after the catch.

  Steelers | Several may compete for one spot    Fri Jun 19, 05:14 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers WRs Amara Darboh, Deon Cain, Saeed Blacknall, Anthony Johnson and Quadree Henderson may compete for one roster spot during training camp.

Footballguys view: Cain has the highest ceiling after being claimed from the Colts last year. Darboh went in the third round of 2017 draft. Blacknall played in the XFL and has an intriguing size/speed combination. Johnson was highly productive in college but didn't stick with the Bucs as an undrafted free agent last year. Henderson has the most value on special teams. If you're going to roster one in your dynasty league, make it Cain.

  Buccaneers | Tampa Bay adds 16 UDFAs    Fri May 10, 12:11 PM

Undrafted rookie free-agents CB Jalen Allison, RB Bruce Anderson, OG Zack Bailey, LB Kahzin Daniels, S Lukas Denis, QB Nick Fitzgerald, LS Dan Godsil, OT Israel Helms, WR Anthony Johnson, WR DaMarkus Lodge, LB Dare Odeyingbo, OT Brock Ruble, TE Isaiah Searight, WR Cortrelle Simpson, WR Malik Taylor and C Nate Trewyn signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Friday, May 10.

Footballguys view: Anderson is the most interesting name for fantasy here with a strong resume as a runner and some explosive plays on the board as a receiver. His combine snub likely knocked him out of the draft, but he's the best back they acquired from the rookie class after not drafting one to bolster their backfield behind Peyton Barber and Ronald Jones. Lodge and Johnson were both considered draftable and could push to make the roster. At least one should make their practice squad.
