James Bradley Johnson (born September 13, 1968) is an American former professional football quarterback who played in the National Football League (NFL) for 17 seasons with the Minnesota Vikings, Washington Redskins, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Dallas Cowboys. He is best known for his time with the Buccaneers, whom he led to a win in Super Bowl XXXVII.

Johnson played college football for the Florida State Seminoles and was selected in the ninth round of the 1992 NFL draft. He is also notable for being the first player in the NFL to complete a touchdown pass to himself, doing so in a 1997 game against the Carolina Panthers. He remained the only player to do so until Marcus Mariota repeated the feat in a 2018 postseason game.
