Detroit Lions: Calvin Johnson Makes the Startling Disclosure That He Used To Smoke Weed Before the ……..
After nine seasons in the NFL, superstar wide receiver Calvin Johnson of the Detroit Lions announced his retirement, but many football fans still thought the premier receiver had many more fantastic seasons ahead of him.
On January 6, 2016, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press published an article about Johnson’s prognosis. Over the previous two seasons, he had missed a significant amount of practice due to a bothersome ankle condition, and according to Birkett, he had discussed retirement with at least one former teammate.
According to Tori Petry of the Lions’ official website, the six-time Pro Bowler acknowledged at the time that he was doubting his future on the field in a joint statement published with the organization.
During Johnson’s tenure with the Lions, which started when Detroit selected him second overall in the 2007 NFL draft, the team made it to the postseason just twice. Considering his continuous excellence and professionalism throughout the years, he most likely deserved better.
Not only will Detroit be disappointed to lose Johnson, who has four years left on a huge contract, but he will also be leaving a sizable financial legacy behind.
Although Goff was once thought to be a washed-up first-round choice, he has resurrected his career and the Lions should be strong candidates in 2024 after working with Ben Johnson and a roster full of offensive skill.
Despite his injuries, Megatron continued to perform at a high level and missed just nine games during his career. The 30-year-old was one of the top receivers of his time with 731 grabs for 11,619 yards and 83 touchdowns.
