Running Back · Los Angeles Chargers

Amar Johnson

No. 35 · 2nd season

Amar Johnson made noise in Green Bay. Now he gets a different kind of audition.

Not every path to a roster spot is a straight line. Sometimes you do enough to get noticed, just not by the team you did it for.

Johnson is a running back who turned heads during the 2025 preseason with the Green Bay Packers. The details of what he did there aren't the point — the point is that someone was watching.

He's now with the Los Angeles Chargers, and the door is open. Preseason proof of concept travels. Whether it translates here, in a new building with new coaches and a different pecking order, is the question every player in his position has to answer.

For a running back still proving he belongs, this is the moment that matters. Not the highlight from a few months ago — what comes next.
