"I felt like this was the best place where I can win a championship and help win a championship," Johnson said. "That's what it's all about. That's why we play the game."

Johnson was released by the Houston Texans earlier this week, ending his 12-year tenure there.

The Texans previously had given Johnson permission to seek a trade, while the seven-time Pro Bowler asked the team to release him.
