Chris Johnson is looking for a new home.



FOX Sports 1 NFL Insider Mike Garafolo reports that former Tennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson is visiting the New York Jets, who are looking to add a playmaker to their backfield.


Johnson was released by the Titans last Monday. The former 2,000-yard rusher is meeting with the team at its facility Tuesday.
The Jets would like Johnson to team with Chris Ivory and Bilal Powell to form a potentially potent trio.


Johnson, who turns 29 in September, is only the sixth player to rush for 1,000 yards in each of his first six seasons.

everything I've ever heard about this guy is ghetto. i'd be more worried about him than vick

 

[Betallsports]

Not sure what the Jets can see in him. He was done after that 2,000 yard Season
Slightly above Avg. but not worth any High type of $$$

One thing the Jets did ok with last year was running the ball

I liked was I saw from Ivory last year

I hope they offer him a long term deal with a lot of guaranteed money.

Guy won't work out for teams. Won't run 40 to show his speed is still there. Major question marks...

Guess we'll see what he has left in the tank with the Jets this year...
