Jaguars Claim WR Tyron Johnson

September 1st, 2021 at 11:14am CST by Sam Robinson

The Jaguars are using their No. 1 waiver priority on a young wide receiver. Tyron Johnson will join the Jags’ 53-man roster via waiver claim, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com tweets.

Johnson flashed as a Chargers rookie last season, but the Bolts included him on their list of Tuesday cuts. Johnson did not advance at all on the waiver wire and will head to the rebuilding Jaguars. This likely will not be the Jags’ lone waiver claim Wednesday.

Jacksonville cut ties with a host of wideouts Tuesday, including Phillip Dorsett, Laquon Treadwell and Devin Smith. In Johnson, Urban Meyer‘s team will have a younger talent joining the likes of D.J. Chark, Marvin Jones and Laviska Shenault.

During a season in which both Keenan Allen and Mike Williams dealt with injuries, Johnson contributed to Justin Herbert‘s rise. The Oklahoma State product averaged an impressive 19.9 yards per catch, hauling in 20 passes for 398 yards and three touchdowns.

Chargers Trim Roster To 53

August 31st, 2021 at 5:25pm CST by Ben Levine

The Chargers waived 16 players today, reducing their roster to 53 players. The team made the following transactions

Waived

K Michael Badgley
WR Michael Bandy
RB Darius Bradwell
CB John Brannon
DL Cortez Broughton
LB Cole Christiansen
DB Ben DeLuca
LB Emeke Egbule
DL Breiden Fehoko
LB Joe Gaziano
OG Nate Gilliam
OG Ryan Hunter
WR Tyron Johnson
TE Hunter Kampmoyer
WR Jason Moore
WR Joe Reed

It’s a bit surprising that the organization is moving on from Johnson considering his solid season in 2020. The 2019 undrafted free agent finished his second professional season with 23 touches for 415 yards from scrimmage and three touchdowns. The 25-year-old also got some run on special teams, including six kick returns.

Badgley was another notable cut, which we explored in depth earlier today.
