In January 2014, following an off the field incident against Bury Town that had occurred on 25 September 2013, Johnson was given a year long ban by The Football Association. Upon the completion of his ban, Johnson re-signed for Grays, going out on loan to Tilbury in order to gain match fitness.[3] Whilst at Grays, loans to Soham Town Rangers and Harlow Town followed,[4] before departing in 2016, re-joining tenants Aveley. On 24 March 2017, Johnson, alongside Canvey Island goalkeeper Conor Gough, joined Chelmsford City on dual-registration as cover for Ross Fitzsimons during Chelmsford's National League South run-in.[5] During the 2017–18 season, Johnson re-signed for Grays, having spells at Hertford Town, Basildon United, Waltham Abbey and Aveley in the following campaign.[6] In July 2019, Canvey Island signed Johnson.[7] In the summer Johnson moved to Canveys near neighbour's Bowers & Pitsea.
In the period November 2021 until the end of January, Johnson played for Haringey Borough,[8] before continuing his career at Tilbury.[9] In the summer 2022, Johnson joined Walthamstow.[10]
From November 2022 until the end of the 2022-23 season, Johnson played for Hornchurch before moving to Concord Rangers.[11] Later in 2023, he moved to Harefield United.[12]
During the first half part of 2024, Johnson played for Tower Hamlets FC.[13] In the summer 2024, he joined Enfield.[14] In the beginning of 2025, he moved to Risborough Rangers.[15] In March 2025, he returned to his former club, Walthamstow.[16][17]
