Thoughts on Johnson signing

The Jets signed free agent running back Chris Johnson. The announcement was made by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Johnson is a very good fit for the Jets’ offense. The team’s offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg loves dialing up passes to his running backs, and Johnson is a very good receiving back, with world class speed.

It was a smart move by the Jets to get him signed now, so Johnson has the entire off-season and summer to get comfortable in their offense.

Schefter announced it’s a two-year deal worth up to $9 million.

They got Johnson at a reasonable price since there weren’t a lot of suitors for the running back.

And if the deal isn’t too costly, how can you argue with it?

Even with some wear-and-tear, Johnson is a rare talent.
