7 years agoThe door is open for Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson to receive a contract extension during the season. As of now, the two sides are not expected to come to an agreement before Week 1 against the Redskins this Sunday, according to a source. The 26-year-old played in just one game in 2017 due to a wrist injury, but he recorded 1,239 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns on the ground in 2016 and was drafted as a top-five fantasy pick this year. He's one of the most versatile backs in the NFL and will once again be the focal point of Arizona's offense in 2018.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
