Achilles’ injuries are very difficult to turn back and usually take the time to blow to return. However, if he can be healthy, Johnson’s ability to get to the field can completely change how the jets affect the team manager.
Johnson is looking forward to finally getting back on the pitch in week 1 against Pittsburgh Steelers.
“I know it will be emotional for me just because it was a long, long way,” said Johnson on Wednesday. “I tend not to become mindful. This is bigger than myself. Every week is important. I have to be what I have got to be to work, and that’s what my brain will focus on most. I’m sure I will just bash it before the game, but when the clock starts, I will be closed inside.”
