While it may not exactly be a splash signing, and we’re still far away from even the opening of training camp, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ decision to sign David Johnson is an interesting one, considering it was not necessarily believed that they were still seeking help at the tight end position after they signed Ladarius Green in free agency.
Coincidentally, Green and Johnson have both spent the past two seasons playing for the Chargers before signing with Pittsburgh this offseason, but the latter, of course, was originally drafted by the Steelers in 2009 as a seventh-round draft pick.
