No, they waived Johnson. Saw it on the official site.

They did what?!?!? Waived him? They can't do that if he's injured.

Holy crap. I just checked. Apparently, they can. I hope we can stash him on the Practice Squad. That's just crazy. We better get another RB other than Ward.

Well, I think you are half right. As best as I can tell, if they "waive/injured" and they reach an injury settlement. Once it is settled, then he is free to re-sign with someone else, or preferrably, our practice squad. Kubes said he is going to be out a month or so, so I don't see anyone else picking him up.

They got Chris Ogbonnaya 6'0" 225lbs a 2-year "veteran" from U.Texas. There is still one slot open for the practice squad. I'd like to see a BIG DT like Jay Ross. Wondering if it's too late now to add another body. I also would be interested in signing Stanford Keglar, since the Titans cut him. He's a 6'2" 250lbs LB that has good speed and quickness from Purdue.

It's not to late to add to the practice squad, in fact it is common for teams to juggle this roster all season.

Good to know. I'd think having a 'big' DT might be good on the practice squad. I suppose Okam could play the role during practice when we are preparing for a 3/4 team. I reckon I just want another big body on the roster to groom for NT.
