Buccaneers designate WR Kameron Johnson for return from IR

Wide receiver Kameron Johnson is on his way back to the Buccaneers lineup.

Johnson has been out since Week Seven due to an ankle injury, but the team announced on Thursday that he has been designated for return from injured reserve. He will be able to practice for the next three weeks before reaching a deadline to be activated or remain on the injured list.

The Buccaneers signed Johnson as an undrafted free agent this offseason and he made the team out of training camp. He played in four games before landing on injured reserve and did not catch any passes.

Johnson did run once for no gain and he returned one punt for 11 yards.
