First Growing Pains For David Johnson

David Johnson set the bar impossibly high in his first two games, making NFL history by scoring on a kickoff, a rush and a reception in wins over the Saints and Bears.

The rookie running back was the first to admit there wasn’t anywhere to go but down, although he was hoping for a softer landing than the one resulting from the mistakes he made in the Cardinals’ 24-22 loss to the Rams on Sunday.

Johnson fumbled the opening kickoff which led to a St. Louis touchdown and then dropped a touchdown pass on the Cardinals’ second offensive possession.
