Defensive end George Johnson quickly rewarding Saints' confidence

Defensive end George Johnson heard plenty of doubt about his potential before the New Orleans Saints signed him earlier this month.

"Just a couple weeks ago I was sitting at home and teams told me I couldn't rush, I wasn't a good rusher anymore, I had lost a step," Johnson said. "But, thank God and thanks to the Saints for bringing me in and giving me another opportunity to actually show that I still can rush and still can play."

Re: Defensive end George Johnson quickly rewarding Saints' confidence

Speaking of 09 - who was the defensive lineman we picked up after being released for drug possession? Revived his career here under Gregg W... May have played for the Packers?
