Redskins bring in RB Johnson
Football Betting Lines
03/12/2010 -
Ashburn, VA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Redskins signed running back
Larry Johnson on Friday.
Terms of the deal were not announced, but a report in the Washington Post says
the contract is for three years and a total of $12 million.
The two-time Pro Bowl selection was released from the Chiefs last November
following a suspension that was levied after the former first-round pick
posted demeaning comments toward Chiefs head coach Todd Haley, using a pair of
gay slurs in the process.
He was later picked up by Cincinnati and played in seven games with the
Bengals, running for 204 yards.
The 30-year-old now returns home after growing up in Pomfret, Maryland.
"Being from the Maryland area, [I] grew up watching the Redskins," Johnson
said. "That's what was on the TV, the Redskins and Cowboys...there's just so
much history. I used to go to their camps--Gary Clark, Art Monk, all of those
guys were there.
"It's great to be in a city with all my family and friends and everybody I
basically went to high school and college with that's still down here. So it's
fun."
Over his seven-year career, he has totaled 6,219 yards with 55 touchdowns
along with 154 catches for 1,373 yards and six scores.
His best season came in the 2006 campaign, when he rushed for a career-high
1,789 yards and added 19 total touchdowns with Kansas City.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
