Titans running back Chris Johnson said he wouldn’t be working out with the team this offseason. And he isn’t.

Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean reports that Johnson isn’t attending the team’s offseason workout program. As Wyatt points out, Johnson worked out on his own in Florida last year -- and it didn’t keep him from rushing for 2,006 yards in 2009.

It’s unknown whether he’ll show up for Organized Team Activities -- basically, practice in helmets, T-shirts, and shorts. He participated in these sessions, during which much of the offense and defense are installed, in 2009.

Wyatt also reports that other players have skipped the workouts, and that overall attendance has been “spotty.”
