Catching up with Calvin Johnson: Megatron talks HOF, Stafford, Lions, cannabis

DETROIT -- Looks can be deceiving.

At first glance, a casual sports fan wouldn’t be hard-pressed to think Calvin Johnson is an active football player.

But for Johnson, 35, those days are completely over.

“I’m too far gone,” Johnson told ESPN, with a laugh. “I want to enjoy my snowboarding and growing great product.”

Megatron still maintains his fit 6-foot-5 frame, which helped him “Moss” too many defenders to name as a member of the Detroit Lions, but now those gray hairs are slowly creeping in.

Along with being a husband and raising three sons, the retired wideout is a businessman, and the "product" the soon-to-be first-ballot Hall of Famer is referring to is cannabis.
