The early reviews on the New Orleans Saints' three-year extension with tight end Juwan Johnson are less than ideal.

Saints tight end Juwan Johnson is returning to the team in 2025 after establishing career highs in receptions and receiving yards in 2024.

The Broncos hosted free-agent tight end Evan Engram at the team facility on Monday — with an emphasis on a medical evaluation, no doubt — but he left the Mile High City unsigned. Engram is now headed to Los Angeles to meet with the Chargers.

In five NFL seasons with New Orleans, Johnson has recorded 146 receptions for 1,622 yards (11.1 avg) and 18 touchdowns

The Saints are re-signing Johnson on a three-year deal, according to his agency. Johnson checked in on PFR’s Top 50 Free Agents list, as this year — before Evan Engram ‘s release — brought a thin tight end contingent. But Johnson was one of the headliners. He is staying in New Orleans on a third contract.

The New Orleans Saints have reached an agreement with tight end Juwan Johnson on a new three-year contract, according to Fox NFL insider Jordan Schultz. The 28-year-old Johnson's new deal will pay him in excess of $30 million over the life of the contract.
