Jaguars Surprisingly Waive Collin Johnson
3 years agoThe Jacksonville Jaguars announced that they waived wide receiver Collin Johnson on Tuesday. Johnson's release comes as a surprise, as he seemed likely to make the team before the announcement due to his strong camp and the lack of other options after the team also waived Laquon Treadwell and released Phillip Dorsett II. Johnson is still a promising young wideout at 6-foot-6 222 pounds, and he's likely to be picked up by another club in the coming days. Johnson's release could foreshadow a coming wide receiver addition, but as of right now journeymen Tavon Austin and Jamal Agnew are set to battle for fourth wide receiver duties. Johnson excels in the red zone, and he has an outside shot at carving out a fantasy-relevant role this season if he lands with the right team following his departure from Jacksonville.
