Johnson
signed a contract with the Lions on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Johnson spent training camp last season with Ottawa, but was unable to make the team and failed to draw interest elsewhere. After another year off training on his own, Johnson will now test his luck with the Lions, though he's not guaranteed a final spot on the regular-season roster. A small-school graduate of Texas A&M Commerce, Johnson will battle for a depth role with the likes of fellow recent additions Kevin Elliott, Kenny Lawler, Ronnie Hollie and Samajie Grant.
