It didn't take too long for Kerryon Johnson to find a new home.
Johnson, the Detroit Lions' second-round pick in 2018, was claimed Friday by the Philadelphia Eagles one day after being cut by the team that drafted him, the Eagles announced. Johnson last season fell behind 2020 draft pick D'Andre Swift on the Lions' depth chart, and new general manager Brad Holmes added versatile back Jamaal Williams in free agency.
In 34 games (18 starts) with the Lions, Johnson accumulated 1,225 rushing yards on 283 total carries (4.3 yards per carry).
