Johnson is coming off of a strong season with the Arizona Cardinals in which he gained 814 yards in 11 games, averaging an impressive 4.2 yards per carry.
The veteran running back, who turns 31 in September, went to Arizona after a down year with the New York Jets but appears to have plenty left in the tank.
