| Mon Dec 3 2012 | 00:50 | Damaris Johnson has one-catch night | ||||
Damaris Johnson caught one pass for 13 yards in Philadelphia's Week 13 loss to the Cowboys. | ||||||
Johnson was expected to be in for an increased role in the absence of DeSean Jackson, but came off the bench behind Riley Cooper. His first-quarter catch was his only target of the night. Johnson did make his presence felt on special teams, taking a punt 98 yards to the house with just 0:31 remaining, but isn't looking like he'll be a meaningful part of the offense down the stretch. He's not on the redraft radar. | ||||||

| Tue Nov 27 2012 | 16:03 | Damaris Johnson to start for Jackson? | ||||
Damaris Johnson played 40-of-50 snaps (80 percent) in Week 12 versus the Panthers. | ||||||
Johnson has practiced at flanker behind DeSean Jackson while Riley Cooper has been the backup split end behind Jeremy Maclin. Expect Johnson to be given the first shot to replace Jackson (broken ribs) in the starting lineup. As much as the Eagles have struggled to move the ball through the air, Johnson is purely a deep-league option. | ||||||
