THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP) Trumaine Johnson claims he didn’t miss a week of offseason workouts because he was mad at the Los Angeles Rams, or because he was upset about his contract situation.
The high-priced cornerback returned to voluntary workouts with the Rams on Monday after skipping a week. Johnson neglected to inform Rams coach Sean McVay in advance that he would miss last week’s program, but he said his absence wasn’t related to uncertainty over his long-term future with the team.
Instead, Johnson spent the week dealing with an unspecified personal matter.
”I understand it’s a distraction,” Johnson said after practice.
