Former Tennessee Titans RB Chris Johnson is at the New York Jets facility today visiting with the staff and a few of the players and will likely be working out for the team, per Adam Schefter. There had been a lot of rumors about the Jets interest in bringing in Johnson onto the roster and we see that they are following through on that chatter.
The biggest question mark between the two sides will be the money. Will they be able to agree on a contract that makes sense or will Johnson be looking to get a pay day.
Johnson still is an explosive runner and he believes that he is a lead back in this league. He believes that he is one of the best in the game. Will he be looking for that type of money?
Johnson is gauging the interest around the league. At this moment, the Jets are the only team that has brought him in. The New York Giants were another team that had been rumored to have interest. While he is just down the street, he might as well swing by the Giants facility to see what they have to offer.
