Ty Johnson injury: status and who’s next up
Latest report: Week 8
Ty Johnson is not listed on the latest weekly injury report. He last carried a game designation in Week 2 (questionable, hamstring).
Being absent from a report is not confirmation that a player is healthy; teams report only what league rules require.
Where Ty Johnson fits in the Buffalo Bills backfield
James Cook III starts and Ray Davis is our published next man up. Ty Johnson sits further down the room, so his status matters most in a week when one of them is also unavailable.
Injury history
No long absence in the prior three seasons. 2026: a leg injury in August camp - Joe Brady said on Aug. 25 that Johnson had resumed running - and dated reporting describes him as returning to his role in the Week 3 win over the Chargers, so he missed earlier time this season. The exact number of games missed is not established by the sources reviewed.
