Team signs DT Meyers for 2, LB Landon Johnson for one
The Bengals this morning, as expected, announced that they had signed defensive tackle Michael Myers to a two-year contract. He was released last month by Denver.
The Bengals also signed linebacker Landon Johnson to a one-year contract. A restricted free agent, Johnson had been offered a one-year tender at $850,000, which would have allowed the Bengals to receive draft-status compensation (third round) had he signed an offer sheet with another team. The Bengals would have had the right to match.
Johnson is the team's likely starting weak-side linebacker in 2007.

Post a Comment*Getting Michael Myers will give us the 4th dtackle in the rotation. However, Im not sold that we still might take a dt in the draft at some point. Now we won't be able to carry 5 dt's on the active list so the pick might go to the psquad or we might, just might, cut the dead weight in John Thronton. Landon Johnson resigning is for the year is good. I am suprised nobody tried to sign him away from us. I still feel linebacker is a need and still do endorse Ed Hartwell fully, even if it is for just a year.
