Why It Matters: Johnson saw limited playing time in this one until the game was out of hand, but that didn't stop him from being useful for the fantasy managers who were desperate at running back or just hoping for a nice encore to his Week 8 breakout performance. He handled the bulk of the Chiefs' final scoring drive and punched it in from six yards away. Johnson won’t be much of a fantasy factor as long as Kenneth Walker III is healthy, but he needs to be owned in all leagues at this point as one of the best handcuffs in fantasy.
