Washington Brings Back Danny Johnson, Jared Norris
The Washington Football Team re-signed cornerback Danny Johnson and linebacker Jared Norris to undisclosed deals on Tuesday, according to a source. Johnson was the team's primary kickoff returner last year and also provides depth in the secondary. Norris primarily helps out on special teams. Johnson returned 26 kicks in 2020, posting 22 yards per return and no touchdowns. The 25-year-old has 38 career kickoff returns for 856 yards in 30 games (three starts) for Washington over three seasons. Norris appeared in 11 games last year, playing 42 percent of the team's special teams snaps. He started his career with the Carolina Panthers in 2016 as an undrafted free agent out of Utah. In 39 career NFL games, Norris has 14 tackles.
