On Monday, the Detroit Lions announced that Calvin Johnson will be inducted into the team's ring of honor, also known as the “Pride of the Lions.” Johnson was surprised by the news and called it a “tearjerker” moment on the Up & Adams Show. The ceremony will take place during Johnson’s birthday weekend when the Lions host the Seattle Seahawks on September 30 at halftime of their “Monday Night Football” game.
Johnson shares the honor with 20 other all-time great Lions players and will go down as one of the best to ever do it at his position.
