DT Tom Johnson Up and down Story perfect for Saints?
DT Tom Johnson on his journey to the Saints: “It’s like being at the top, falling all the way to the bottom and climb your way up to the sludge and the slime. ... I’m trying to take advantage of everything they want me to be.”
DT Tom Johnson’s born August 30, 1984 in Moss Point, Mississippi journeyman career started with the Colts five years ago. An injury ended his stay in Indianapolis and he thought his career was over. He played in the Arena League but said it wasn’t for him. He signed with the Saints after a successful stint in the CFL. |

Ol' Tom did pretty good against the 49ers. I hope he can keep it up. |

good video. Seems like a humble guy with his head in the right place.

Bottom line: he has really great speed which on the other hand can get him into trouble, but at the same time can get him out of it. Definitely a great rotation guy for Ellis' 3-tech spot. |
Your mancrush is worse than mine with Gallette..Fin..lol

What a motor for a guy his size. I'm impressed with Tom Johnson, and that's not easy. I also would like to see some more of the same. Greg Williams needs a bigger tool box.

Anyway, I'm keeping my fingers crossed. |
This is they type of story we had with Anthony Hargorve - I like this aacpect of our front office & they seem careful what reclamation projects they sign.
I can NEVER see us signing a TO or Randy Moss. (TO Isn't playing somehwere ... is he??) |
I think Johnson is going to make the final 53. I believe he has a better chance of being on the final roster than Mitch King (no offense to Mitch King, who played against backups but looked good).
We will know more after this week's game at Reliant. But because we also play the Texans in week 3 of the regular season, I would not expect 3G to show his total hand in this game. |
can mitch king make the practice squad

Based on the SP's recap of Tuesday's practice... Johnson did in fact suffer an injury to his calf muscle:

But SP liked what he saw out of him: Quote:
So it would seem that he's a lock for the 4th DT spot, which leaves King looking in from the outside. |
