Josh Johnson’s NFL journey just keeps rolling—and this time, it’s taking him back to Washington. The 38-year-old quarterback is signing with the Commanders, returning to the franchise he briefly started for in 2018, back when they were still the Redskins.
If you’ve lost track of Johnson’s resume, it’s understandable. This will be the 14th NFL team he’s signed with, including a quick stint with the Lions in 2019. He never saw the field in Detroit, backing up Matthew Stafford for a couple of games before being replaced by Jeff Driskel.
Now he’s expected to bring veteran experience to a QB room that already includes Marcus Mariota and rising star Jayden Daniels. Johnson’s career has been a testament to resilience—he may not always be the starter, but teams keep calling for a reason.
