CJ2K wishes he had it as good as Darrelle Revis when it comes to contract talks.
“Just got off the phone with my agent and its not good news,” Chris Johnson tweeted. [We’ve strategically added letters for clarity.] “I’m feeling like @Revis24 [Darrelle Revis] right now at least dey offering him something dey not offering me nothing.”
The Titans running back embarked on a holdout that includes no easy solution, unless Tennessee becomes willing to give Johnson a short-term bump to tide him over. We suspect the team won’t entertain any new contract for a third-year player.
“Its like how u expect your players to give they all and put their bodies on the line when you not willing to give them what they deserve,” Johnson said. “How do you want a player to honor their contract but the team don’t have to honor it. If you don’t want to pay a player early don’t cut a player early.”
Johnson’s tweets have become a target in our comments for their spelling and grammar, but his logic is crystal clear in this case.
(And let’s be honest: The spelling in most comments isn’t any better. Not to mention my posts.)
