David Johnson: Exits with knee injury, questionable to return

Johnson left Sunday's game against the Eagles with a knee injury and is questionable to return.

Analysis:

Johnson was removed shortly before halftime, heading to the locker room a few minutes ahead of his teammates after he took a direct shot to the right knee. He was phenomenal for the first 29 minutes of the half, picking up 112 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 14 carries, highlighted by a 47-yard scoring run that was one of the most impressive plays of the season. He also caught both of his targets for 20 yards, once again dominating both the early-down and passing-down work. If Johnson can't return in the second half, Kerwynn WIlliams and Stepfan Taylor will be the only healthy running backs on the roster. Williams had three carries and a catch in the first half.
