Great so now Johnson can get on with blowing out his knee in the third game of the year.

Johnson didn't get what he wanted though, he didn't get elite QB type money.

He wasn't asking for that.

I'll discuss it here...

A) Charles needs to fire his agent right now.

B) That deal should be reworked...it's not fair market value for Jamaal. If he shows another strong year this year I hope Pioli and Clark man up and pay the man what he's worth.

**** YES!

YES!

YES!

**** YES!!!!!!!!!!!!1BBQ

Technically, Chris Johnson isn’t the highest-paid running back

The four-year contract signed by Titans running back Chris Johnson is being sold as a four-year, $53.5 million contract, which translates to an impressive average annual take of $13.375 million. But the true value of the deal puts the average payout much lower than that.

With pre-existing base salaries of $800,000 in 2011 and $960,000 in 2012, the total money over six years becomes $55.26 million. That’s an average of $9.21 million.

And so, by focusing on the new money, Johnson got what he wanted. By focusing on the total money, the Titans kept Johnson at the top of the running back market. Technically, however, Johnson isn’t the highest paid running back.

Vikings running back Adrian Peterson will get $10.7 million this year, nearly $1.5 million more than Johnson’s six-year average.

That said, Johnson has scored a $30 million guarantee, unprecedented for a tailback. And maybe that should be the headline. The four years/$53.5 million and six years/$55.26 million difference is much more than a potato-potahto distinction. And it makes us wonder at which point over the next few years Johnson will be looking for another new contract, once someone signs a long-term deal with a legitimate eight-figure annual average.
