According to Michael Silver, WR Stevie Johnson of the San Diego Chargers has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus and will undergo surgery. His timetable is unknown at this time but could range anywhere between 2-6 months depending on the severity of the tear. (Michael Silver on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
If Johnson does in fact miss extended time it could afford more targets to starting wideouts Travis Benjamin and Keenan Allen. It also opens up the potential for Dontrelle Inman, Javontee Herndon, or Tyrell Williams to earn an increased role. This situation will be one to monitor once a timeline is given post-surgery.
