NFL Legend Calvin Johnson Says Relationship With Lions 'Definitely on the Up and Up'

Detroit Lions legendary wide receiver Calvin Johnson is set to be honored with an induction into the Pride of the Lions during halftime of Monday night's game against the Seattle Seahawks, and he said his relationship with the franchise is moving in a positive direction.

"It's definitely on the up and up," Johnson said, per ESPN's Eric Woodyard. "We've come a long ways from when I left here and that I don't know how long it was now ... eight, nine years ago to where we are now. It's been efforts on both sides to get us back to this point and I'm just happy to be at the point to have my kids here and being able to see the things that I was able to accomplish on the field.
