The Los Angeles Rams are re-signing wide receiver Tyler Johnson for the 2024 season, his agency Team IFA announced on social media Sunday.

Contract terms were not disclosed.

Johnson, 25, spent nearly all of last season on the Rams' practice squad but played in the Week 18 game against the San Francisco 49ers. He caught two passes for eight yards and one touchdown.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had selected Johnson in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft out of Minnesota. He played two seasons with the Bucs, starting six of 31 games played, and also appeared in two games with the Houston Texans in 2022.

Johnson has a total of 50 receptions for 537 yards and three touchdowns in 34 games (six starts) in his career.
