Johnson agreed to a contract with the Panthers on Wednesday, ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Carolina needs depth on the interior of its defensive line, and Johnson - who started 16 games as a rookie for Indianapolis in 2007 - should be able to help. As long as his off-field issues are in order (he was arrested for possessing marijuana while with the Colts), he can become a solid rotational player for Carolina.

Looks to get some playing time in rotation with the other Panthers DTs. Though only in his fourth season, Johnson is considered a veteran in Carolina's defensive line. However, his low production in past seasons doesn't make him a viable IDP option.
Johnson is listed as fourth on the depth chart at right defensive tackle going into training camp. He is not expected to make the team, and did not play a game after week one in 2008.
Johnson will start at defensive tackle as the Colts' run-stopper. He won't post more than one or two sacks and has no IDP value.
Undrafted free agent from Penn State could win time on the defensive line this summer as the Colts are in need of big bodies who can help defend against the run.
