Larry Johnson has a couple of suitors

The man who has played for two NFL teams has two more NFL teams who are interested in his services.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that former Chiefs and Bengals running back Larry Johnson will visit the Redskins tomorrow.

A league source tells us that Johnson is scheduled to visit the Raiders on Sunday.

Johnson was a first-round pick in 2003, and at one point he was one of the best running backs in the league. The Chiefs dumped him during the 2009 season after imposing a suspension due to a Twitter (or Facebook or one of those other things that make me feel old) assault on coach Todd Haley and a locker-room remark allegedly directed at a reporter.

It’s unclear whether and to what extent Johnson has anything left in the tank.

Some Redskins fans might welcome the addition of Johnson, if for no reason other than to lock Larry Johnson and Clinton Portis in a room and, you know, see what happens.
