usbobsled Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Cornerback Chris Johnson to visit the Jets Posted by Michael David Smith on April 22, 2012, 10:44 AM EDT AP A month and a half after he was cut by the Raiders, cornerback Chris Johnson still hasn’t found a new NFL home. But he has a visit lined up for Monday. Johnson will visit the Jets, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports. Johnson spent the last five seasons with the Raiders, playing in 59 games and starting 29. He’d add depth at cornerback and contribute on special teams if he signed with the Jets. For Johnson, finding a new team this offseason has taken a back seat to taking care of his family. His sister was killed and his mother injured in a shooting during the 2011 season, and he’s been caring for his mother and his sister’s children this offseason.

Bleedin Green Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 What does he play on special teams, does anyone know? Looks like he was part of the Raiders coverage units. Sounds like a potential replacement for Cole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSJ Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Rex helped Fabian Washington (another Raiders castaway) play at a very high level. Nice move for the right price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREENBEAN Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Career stats: http://www.nfl.com/p...465/careerstats Based on what? Nothing. I was being playful. I also see that I quoted the wrong post which probably didn't help you to understand that I was kidding. In all honesty I seriously don't even know if I've ever heard his name before. Sorry.
