The Facts:
Johnson tried clearing up the mystery of the cracked bone in his right foot that caused him to miss the last eight games of the 2007 season. "Any time you get a cracked bone or a bone is misplaced, it just takes a while for it to heal," said Johnson, who said he's 100 percent now.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Johnson, who missed all of training camp while negotiating a new contract that made him the Chiefs' highest-paid player, never got on track last season. He began the season with a slight hamstring injury and rushed for just 559 yards in 158 carries before suffering the cracked bone in his foot on Nov. 4 against Green Bay. ... Johnson said he is spending most of the offseason in the Miami area, where he's working out with fellow NFL backs Edgerrin James and Willis McGahee, but he plans to attend the Chiefs' off-season program. "I don't ever miss an off-season program," Johnson said. "I haven't missed one since I've been here, so no sense in missing one now."
