Johnson discussed his past concussion experience in an interview with Rolling Stone in 2014.
“Getting fired from my first job because of a concussion still leaves a bad taste in my mouth,” he said at the time. “I went to Kansas City’s camp and I felt like I was doing alright and then I got injured. I was concussed.
“I was technically still concussed and still under doctor’s care when they released me. The GM and the coach said they hadn’t seen enough to keep me.”
If seen, police ask that you do not attempt to contact Johnson, but alert authorities instead.
