  Vikings | J. Johnson to make final roster    Tue Aug 25, 01:19 PM

CBSSports.com reports Minnesota Vikings WR Jaymar Johnson is a lock to make the final roster and will likely be the team's No. 1 punt returner. Johnson saw some reps with the first-team offense Tuesday, Aug. 25, in place of WR Bernard Berrian (hamstring).

Footballguys view: The former Jackson State receiver has some of the quickest feet in the game today. Jaymar Johnson is extremely fast, quick, agile, and elusive which makes him a great option as a punt returner.

  Vikings | J. Johnson candidate to become punt returner    Sat Aug 8, 11:04 AM

Chip Scoggins, of the Star Tribune, reports Minnesota Vikings WR Jaymar Johnson is making a strong bid in training camp to earn a roster spot as both a wide receiver and punt returner. Johnson expects to win the return job this season. Johnson and WR Percy Harvin are getting most of the punt return reps in practice, although Johnson seems more comfortable in the role at this stage.

Footballguys view: Johnson would be much more comfortable in that role because Harvin has never been a returner before in his career. Jaymar Johnson is extremely quick and shifty, plus he gets up to top speed in a hurry. Harvin will star on offense, but Johnson will have to make this team with his special teams play. Don't be surprised when he runs a couple of punts back for touchdowns during the regular season.

  Vikings | Carter impressed with J. Johnson    Fri Jul 17, 12:57 PM

The St. Paul Pioneer Press reports former NFL WR Cris Carter said he has been impressed with Minnesota Vikings WR Jaymar Johnson and believes he could start for the Vikings. 'You could tell that he went to a school that didn't have a sophisticated passing attack. But he has phenomenal quickness and speed. Phenomenal. And his hands are better than you would think, from a guy that fast,' Carter said.

Footballguys view: We've liked Johnson since we saw him back at Jackson State. He is going to have trouble getting higher than fifth on the Vikings depth chart at WR, but any time a great like Carter lavished a young receiver with praise, we take notice.

  Vikings | Several WRs will compete for final spot    Sat May 30, 05:21 PM

Chip Scoggins, of the Minneapolis Star Tribune, reports Minnesota Vikings WRs Aundrae Allison, Glenn Holt, Darius Reynaud and Jaymar Johnson will compete for the final wide receiver spot on the roster.

Footballguys view: Just because these guys are battling for the final WR spot on the roster doesn't mean that they don't have talent. One player to watch in this battle is WR Jaymar Johnson. A sixth-round pick out of Jackson State last year, Johnson spent most of the year on the Vikings practice squad. He is lightning quick, and has great footwork. He uses these attributes to get open against good coverage because he can break off a route before the defender can react. The battle for the final WR spot should go all the way through the preseason.
