Countdown to Kickoff: Juwan Johnson is the Saints Player of Day 83
Juwan Johnson’s focus right now should be recovering from offseason foot surgery, but what are his big-picture goals in 2024? We’re counting down the days until the New Orleans Saints kick off their 2024 season against the Carolina Panthers on Sept. 8, and with 83 days left to go he’s our Saints Player of the Day.
Here’s a quick look at Johnson’s status with the Saints, and what he should be looking to achieve in 2024:
- Name (Age): Juwan Johnson (27)
- Position: Tight end
- Height, weight: 6-foot-4, 231 pounds
- Relative Athletic Score: 7.79
- 2024 salary cap hit: $7 million
- College: Oregon
- Drafted: Undrafted in 2020 (New Orleans Saints)
- NFL experience: 5 seasons
Johnson is in the final year of his contract, and he’s one of several big names the Saints will have to choose whether to re-sign in 2025 — along with guys like Rashid Shaheed, Paulson Adebo, Pete Werner, and maybe Chase Young and Payton Turner, plus Alvin Kamara if he and the Saints don’t reach an agreement on an extension this summer.
