$53 Million Dollar Man
Tennessee Titan running back Chris Johnson signed a $53.5 million dollar contract in September. So what's going on with the guy who lead the NFL in rushing for three seasons? Johnson is averaging 2.9 yards per carry this season. Last Sunday against the winless Colts, Johnson ran for 34 yards on 14 carries for a 2.4 yard average.

$53 million....Ouch!

I heard today on ESPN that Tennessee is now employing a 'running back by committee'. Javon Ringer is doing a much better job this year.

Looks good on him. Didn't this flake start tweeting about waiting for god to bless him with a big new contract during his holdout.

serves the titans right for signing a freaking running back to a 53 million dollar deal, punters are more valuable

If Ringer continues to impress and CJ continues to decline this could happen couldn't it??

NFL.com news: Titans could walk away from Johnson after first season of deal
