David Johnson

Johnson was cleared to resume football activities in early February, but he apparently still has some limitations. This may just be a matter of the Cardinals being cautious, as there isn't much incentive to rush Johnson back for on-field work in April. He'll return to a new-look Arizona offense with Mike McCoy as the coordinator and Sam Bradford as the starting quarterback. Johnson remains the centerpiece, two years removed from a spectacular season of 2,118 scrimmage yards and 20 touchdowns. It helps that he's bouncing back from a season-ending wrist injury, as opposed to the lower-body injuries that typically are to blame when a running back loses an entire campaign. He won't need to go through the arduous process of rebuilding leg strength after months of inactivity.
