Charles Johnson spent the first nine seasons of his NFL career with the Carolina Panthers, and it appears as if he's going to make it a full decade with the franchise that drafted him.
ESPN's Adam Schefter, citing team sources, reported Tuesday that Johnson is planning to return to Carolina after meeting with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New York Giants. ESPN's Josina Anderson confirmed the report.
According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Johnson "turned down [$6 million] from other teams," agreeing instead to a one-year deal worth $3 million with the Panthers.
