Any Lions fan who watched Calvin Johnson play over his nine seasons in Detroit couldn’t have been surprised the wide receiver was selected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday night.
Of course, Johnson was too busy playing to watch himself, which explains his reaction to football’s highest honor, filled with stunned looks of shock and amazement.
Surprised at his home by Hall of Fame president David Baker, Johnson alternated between smiles, laughter and tears as Baker talked about Johnson’s future bust that will be displayed in the Hall in Canton, Ohio.
