Buccaneers' Tez Johnson: One catch to close preseason
Johnson secured one of three targets for nine yards in the Buccaneers' 19-0 preseason loss to the Jaguars on Friday.
Johnson recorded his one catch on his initial target of the night, which came with 5:47 remaining in the first quarter on the Buccaneers' second possession. Friday's action was the first of the preseason for the 2025 seventh-round pick, who'd missed the first two exhibitions due to an Aug. 4 groin strain. Johnson outperformed his draft slotting as a rookie with a 28-322-5 line over 16 regular-season games a year ago, and he should have a good chance of reprising a depth receiver role to open the 2026 season.

Buccaneers' Tez Johnson: Back at practice Tuesday
Johnson (groin) is taking part in Tuesday's practice, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
Though it's not clear whether Johnson will be a full or limited participant in Tuesday's session, his presence on the field in any capacity is a sign that he's made good progress in his recovery from a groin strain he sustained earlier this month. Johnson at least appears to be in a better spot on the health front than fellow wideouts Emeka Egbuka (toe) and Jalen McMillan (knee), who are both remaining sidelined Tuesday.

Buccaneers' Tez Johnson: Suffers groin strain
Johnson sustained a strained groin during practice Tuesday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Johnson had to leave practice early Tuesday after picking up the injury. It's unclear at this point how severe the strain is or how long it will keep the second-year wideout sidelined. Any missed time in practice or preseason games could be a big deal for Johnson, as he's jockeying for pecking-order position with the likes of Jalen McMillan (knee) and Ted Hurst in the Bucs' wideout room.

Buccaneers' Tez Johnson: Shows flashes in rookie season
Johnson brought in his only target for 17 yards and rushed once for five yards in the Buccaneers' 16-14 win over the Panthers on Saturday. He finished his 2025 rookie campaign with 28 receptions for 322 yards and five touchdowns on 44 targets while adding seven rushes for 22 yards across 16 games.
The 2025 seventh-round pick saw more work than expected as Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Jalen McMillan all dealt with injuries, helping Johnson to gain some value reps early in his NFL career. He logged snap rates of between 57 percent to 73 percent in seven straight games from Week 6 to Week 13. Johnson's workload faded down the stretch as the receiving corps got healthy, but he made a solid first impression and should compete for reserve snaps in 2026.

Buccaneers' Tez Johnson: Multiple grabs in loss
Johnson secured both of his targets for 19 yards in the Buccaneers' 20-17 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.
Johnson managed to record multiple receptions for the first time since Week 12 despite logging 11 snaps on offense (16 percent), his lowest volume since Week 1. With four healthy and more experienced receivers ahead of him on the depth chart, even Sunday's modest stat line can be considered a success for Johnson, who projects to remain in a deep reserve role for a critical Week 18 regular-season finale against the Panthers that could decide the NFC South.

Buccaneers' Tez Johnson: One catch in Week 16 loss
Johnson secured his only target for minus-1 yard in the Buccaneers' 23-20 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.
The rookie's minimal role persisted in Sunday's loss, with Johnson seeing the field on just 25 percent (16 snaps) of the Buccaneers' offensive plays. The recent return of Mike Evans and season debut of Jalen McMillan has predictably pushed Johnson down the depth chart, where he projects to remain for the final two games of the regular season and in the postseason, if Tampa Bay advances.
