The Facts: Appearing on NFL Network's Total Access moments ago, Johnson admitted to being extremely frustrated in Cincinnati. Asked specifically whether he would be a Bengal next season, Johnson wouldn't say. Asked who he would rather play for, Johnson suggested a "consistent winner" would be nice. Asked the specific problem in Cincinnati, Johnson said: "Stuff is just not right. Period."

Diehards Line:Johnson reportedly made similar comments on the Jim Rome Show and during other appearances. In the NFL Network appearance, Johnson made no effort to hide his displeasure with the Bengals -- which host Rich Eisen characterized as frustration but which is clearly much more. Johnson was often unresponsive. Asked what he wanted to tell HC Marvin Lewis, Johnson simply shook his head. Johnson did, however, make it clear he felt like team officials viewed him as "the problem" in Cincinnati last year. ... Again, as we have suggested in past updates: The Bengals say Johnson isn't going anywhere, but that's obviously not going to stop Johnson from stating his case and doing so in as petulant a manner as he can.
