Excerpt from the article: Johnson had the added disadvantage of not being able to participate in an offseason workout program. The NFL eliminated all offseason programs as the COVID-19 pandemic swept in and stagnated over the United States.
“It was definitely tough,” said Johnson. “We first off didn’t have [organized team activities]. That’s really important for a guy who’s getting traded or being on a new team is going through OTAs because that’s a great mental thing to go through and learning the plays because you got so many months before the first game.”

Next week for the AFC South, the Jaguars will play at the Titans, the Colts will host the Minnesota Vikings, and the Houston Texans are hosting the Baltimore Ravens.
