SUMMARY
Running Back Rank: #254   
Overall: #1002


Johnson caught on with the Falcons last season and got in nine games. He had 10 carries and three receptions in limited action. He has yet to top 50 total yards in a season since entering the league two years ago. Johnson has some ability, but seems more of a short-yardage option than anything. He isn't a home-run threat and lacks ideal speed for the running back spot. He has pretty good size, though, and runs pretty well between the tackles. He'll battle for a roster spot.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Johnson isn't worth using until he starts getting consistent playing time. And the chances of that happening in 2011 seem pretty slim.
Atlanta Falcons RB Gartrell Johnson is seeing action with the first-team offense in practice Tuesday, Aug. 9, with RB Michael Turner (personal) out for personal reasons.
The Atlanta Falcons signed free-agent RB Gartrell Johnson (Giants) to an undisclosed deal Tuesday, Sept. 21. RB Shawnbrey McNeal was also signed off of the practice squad.

Ralph Vacchiano, of the New York Daily News, reports New York Giants RB Gartrell Johnson is expected to see significant playing time in Week 17.
Fantasy Impact: He'll probably split work with Danny Ware, making both iffy fantasy options.

Ralph Vacchiano, of the New York Daily News, reports New York Giants RB Gartrell Johnson would be the main backup running back in Week 13 if RB Ahmad Bradshaw (foot, ankle) were not able to play.
Fantasy Impact: Johnson could get a few more carries than normal for him, but we wouldn't expect much.

Mike Garafolo, of The Star-Ledger, reports New York Giants RB Gartrell Johnson will dress out in Week 12 Thursday, Nov. 26, and could see some time in the backfield.
Fantasy Impact: Don't expect much. Johnson is a long shot to get much work.

CBSSports.com reports the New York Giants have signed RB Gartrell Johnson (Chargers) off waivers from the San Diego Chargers.
Fantasy Impact: The Giants need running back help and Johnson is a talented, young back. He won't get much work this season, but could help down the road.
The San Diego Chargers have announced they have waived RB Gartrell Johnson.
Fantasy Impact: Well, that was quick. The Chargers used a fourth-round pick on him this season, so this move is a bit of a surprise.
