Fantasy Impact:
Lions fans will not be getting their former elite wideout back for the playoffs - or in the future - as Johnson reiterated that he will remain retired. He cited injuries as his largest detriment from making a comeback as he is dealing with lingering ankle and finger issues nearly one year into his retirement. Johnson plans on pursuing a degree in management at his former alma mater, Georgia Tech, in the coming months.
