Dillon Johnson: Works out for Chicago
Johnson (undisclosed) worked out for the Bears on Tuesday.
Johnson finished the 2024 season on the Panthers' practice-squad injured list, but he's evidently healthy enough to work out for teams. The 24-year-old has never appeared in a regular-season NFL game.

Dillon Johnson: Cut by Carolina
Johnson (undisclosed) was cut from the Panthers' practice-squad injured list Thursday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Johnson was placed on Carolina's practice squad injured list Dec. 3 with an undisclosed injury, which was set to keep him sidelined for at least four games. The running back will continue to focus on recovering from the injury and once healthy, look to latch on with a team that makes the postseason.

The Panthers placed Johnson (undisclosed) on the practice-squad/injured list Tuesday.
Johnson will be sidelined for a minimum of four games. The 23-year-old went undrafted out of Mississippi State earlier this year and spent parts of the offseason with the Titans and Panthers. He's been on Carolina's practice squad all season but has yet to appear in a regular-season contest.

Dillon Johnson: Waived by Carolina
The Panthers waived Johnson on Monday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Johnson impressed during Carolina's most recent preseason game, touching the ball 20 times for 83 total yards and one touchdown, but it now appears that the team has decided to part ways with the 23-year-old. Now that Johnson has been waived, Carolina's running back room consists of Chuba Hubbard (knee), Jonathon Brooks (knee), Miles Sanders, Raheem Blackshear, Mike Boone and Jaden Shirden.

Panthers' Dillon Johnson: Shines vs. Jets
Johnson rushed 18 times for 83 yards and one touchdown while also hauling in each of his two targets for zero yards during Saturday's 15-12 preseason loss to the Jets.
Each of Carolina's top three running backs sat for the second straight preseason game Saturday, allowing Johnson to make the most of his increased opportunities. The undrafted rookie out of Washington averaged an efficient 4.6 yards per carry Saturday, which likely boosts his chances of making Carolina's 53-man roster. While Johnson is still comfortably behind Chuba Hubbard, Miles Sanders and Raheem Blackshear, he has a shot at remaining in Carolina if he continues performing at a high level.

Panthers' Dillon Johnson: Inks deal with Carolina
The Panthers signed Johnson on Wednesday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
The Washington product was dropped by the Titans just two days ago, but he's already found a new home in Carolina. Johnson has a shot to make the Panthers' 53-man roster, as the team's No. 3 running back spot is seemingly open. Once Johnson arrives in Carolina, he's expected to compete with Miles Sanders and Raheem Blackshear for a depth role on the Panthers' offense.

Dillon Johnson: Dropped by Tennessee
The Titans waived Johnson on Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Johnson was picked up by Tennessee after going undrafted earlier in the offseason, but it now seems as if the team has decided to part ways with the 23-year-old. The Washington product was a second-team all Pac-12 selection last season after tallying 1,385 yards from scrimmage and 16 touchdowns in 2023.

Dillon Johnson: Signing with Tennessee
Johnson is in line to sign with the Titans as an undrafted free agent, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
After three years at Mississippi State, where he functioned mainly as a pass-catching back, Johnson transferred to Washington for his senior season, exploding for a 233-1,195-16 rushing line and 24 catches for 190 scoreless yards. Johnson was a a second-team All-Pac-12 selection and will join a depth chart in Tennessee led by offseason pickup Tony Pollard and second-year back Tyjae Spears.
