Free agent running back Chris Johnson was reportedly shot in the arm early Sunday morning in Orlando, Florida in a drive-by shooting that left one person dead. Johnson is recovering, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Johnson will be an unrestricted free agent on Tuesday after the Jets decline his option. He’s originally from Orlando and still holds the record for the fastest 40-yard dash time at the NFL Scouting Combine. Johnson finished the 2014 season with New York having 153 carries for 663 yards and one touchdown.
