Indianapolis — If Calvin Johnson plays for the Lions in 2016, he’ll have a salary cap hit of $24 million, but general manager Bob Quinn said Wednesday the team has not yet discussed the possibility of altering his contract.

Quinn addressed reporters at the NFL combine Wednesday at Lucas Oil Stadium. In the 13-minute interview, he discussed a variety of topics, but was tight-lipped on just about every topic.

Naturally, the first handful of questions were about Johnson, who’s considering retirement after nine stellar seasons with the Lions.

“I did speak to Calvin,” said Quinn, who hadn’t spoken to him as of a few weeks ago.
