I was thinking of him as an Amp Lee. There is another issue. His missed the last three weeks of the season with a neck injury. Maybe that is why he is still out there.

Let go by Houston
February 26, 2021
The Texans cut Johnson (neck) on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Houston traded a third-round pick for Johnson back in 2019, but he won't be part of the organization's plans going forward. Johnson is coming off the worst season of his career, with just 235 rushing yards and one score on 77 carries (3.1 YPC) across 11 games. He also caught 28 of 34 targets for 249 yards (8.9 yards per catch) and a touchdown. The move saves the Texans roughly $5 million in cap space and leaves Johnson -- whose yards per carry and catch last season were his lowest marks since 2015 -- free to search for a new landing spot. It's also worth noting the 27-year-old missed the final three games of the regular season due to a neck injury.

  These 16 running backs are free agents; could any of them replace Cam Akers?

  I don't think it gets better than Peterson.

alyoshamucci155July 21, 2021 06:07PM

  In this case, his past makes a difference for me... (nm)

JamesJM110July 21, 2021 06:35PM

  IMO what we need is not so much Peterson to rip off...
