Is Theo Johnson Ready to Break Out in Year 2 for the Giants?

The New York Giants may be looking at their next breakout offensive weapon — and no, it’s not another wide receiver. In this segment of “2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates,” hosts Drew and Rob dive into the rising hype around second-year tight end Theo Johnson. With minicamps heating up and speculation swirling, PFSN named Johnson as the breakout candidate to watch for the Giants in the upcoming 2025–26 NFL season. As a fourth-round rookie in 2024, Johnson made a big impact before his injury, starting 11 out of 12 games and hauling in 26 catches between Weeks 5–13. Even more impressive, he logged over 70% of offensive snaps each game he played — proof that the Giants coaching staff already sees his potential. In this clip, Drew and Rob explore what makes Johnson such a unique athletic talent at the tight end position and why his development may explode in Year 2, especially with veteran QB Russell Wilson now under center. Can Theo Johnson become a top-10 tight end? What will his chemistry with Wilson look like in a revamped Giants offense? How do his early flashes compare to other recent tight end prospects around the league? Plus, the guys discuss how tight end development continues to baffle the NFL and why Johnson’s situation could defy the odds. They break down past tight end busts and late-round steals to contextualize what to expect from Johnson and how New York might use him in 2025. If you’re a Giants fan or simply curious about one of the NFL’s most intriguing sophomore players, this is one segment you don’t want to miss. #nygiants #giantsnews #theojohnson #giantsyoutube #nygiantspodcast Thank you for watching & for your support.
