Redskins bring in RB Johnson

Football Betting Lines

03/12/2010 - Ashburn, VA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Redskins signed running back Larry Johnson on Friday.

Terms of the deal were not announced, but a report in the Washington Post says the contract is for three years and a total of $12 million.

The two-time Pro Bowl selection was released from the Chiefs last November following a suspension that was levied after the former first-round pick posted demeaning comments toward Chiefs head coach Todd Haley, using a pair of gay slurs in the process.

He was later picked up by Cincinnati and played in seven games with the Bengals, running for 204 yards.

The 30-year-old now returns home after growing up in Pomfret, Maryland.

"Being from the Maryland area, [I] grew up watching the Redskins," Johnson said. "That's what was on the TV, the Redskins and Cowboys...there's just so much history. I used to go to their camps--Gary Clark, Art Monk, all of those guys were there.

"It's great to be in a city with all my family and friends and everybody I basically went to high school and college with that's still down here. So it's fun."

Over his seven-year career, he has totaled 6,219 yards with 55 touchdowns along with 154 catches for 1,373 yards and six scores.

His best season came in the 2006 campaign, when he rushed for a career-high 1,789 yards and added 19 total touchdowns with Kansas City.
