Stevie gets involved

His reps on Wednesday were again extremely limited in the team setting, but Stevie Johnson pulled in his first catch of the spring.

It came right at the end of practice during 7-on-7. Johnson took a deep route down the right side of the field and Ryan Fitzpatrick hit him for a 20-25 yard pickup.

“I think for him, just for us to be able to hook up and for him to feel like he’s part of it again and out there will be important for him to get a few catches,” said Fitzpatrick. ”I know the relationship we have and he knows the relationship and rapport we have on and off the field. The big thing is getting him out of minicamp healthy and feeling good and confident. Then I promise you he’s going to catch plenty of balls in training camp and the season.”
