Posted in The Indy Star reports that the Colts have again waived starting DT Ed Johnson
The Indianapolis Colts waived starting defensive tackle Ed Johnson for unknown reasons Tuesday in a roster move that will deprive an improving defense of arguably its best run-stuffing lineman. The team declined comment, but Johnson’s name appeared on the league waiver wire. A team spokesman said any comment on roster moves would be made today. It’s the latest in a series of setbacks for the talented-but-troubled Johnson. The third-year pro had been given a second chance this season after a 2008 release, prompted by an arrest for marijuana possession and speeding. The team cut him after one regular-season game last year. The release likely means the end of his career and is a major blow for an unbeaten team playing its best defense.
