Steelers add LB Steven Johnson
The Steelers agreed to a one-year contract with free agent linebacker Steven Johnson on Friday, giving the team depth at the position.
Johnson spent the 2015 season with the Tennessee Titans, playing in 16 games and recording seven tackles.
Johnson was originally signed as an undrafted free agent by the Denver Broncos in 2012, and spent his first three seasons with the Broncos. He played in 41 games for the Broncos, starting six, and had 50 tackles in three seasons.
He played in 57 games during his career with a total of seven starts, and has played in five postseason games with one start.
The fifth-year linebacker has made his mark on special teams during his career with 34 special teams tackles, three fumble recoveries and one forced fumble.
Special teams depth is what this dude is to me. I don't think he sees much play time at all.
