Calvin Johnson Finally Signs with Detroit Lions, Jon Kitna Can Now Resume Winning 10 Games
READ MORE:
The Detroit Lions didn't want to wait around any longer for JaMarcus Russell to sign, so they decided to just get it done and that they did. Calvin Johnson will be the Lions highest paid player in history.

The Lions signed wide receiver Calvin Johnson to a six-year contract about 8 a.m. today, and Johnson took the field for the Lions’ 8:35 a.m. practice.

The deal makes Johnson, the second overall pick in this year’s NFL draft, the highest-paid player in Lions history, according to a report on NFL.com.


It has a maximum value of $64 million, and it includes almost $27.2 million guaranteed and another $4.5 million in bonuses Johnson should earn by the middle of the season if he sees even a minimum amount of playing time, according to NFL.com.
As you well know, rookie wide receivers rarely make a big impact. Jon Kitna is definitely projecting that won't the case. If the Lions are to fulfill his prediction, Calvin Johnson will need to put up big numbers. How do you think he'll perform? (poll below)
