The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... The Titans met with the agent for Johnson at the NFL Combine this weekend, but the veteran running back’s status remains unchanged.

Diehards Line: Johnson is scheduled to make $8 million in 2014 and he’s said on numerous occasions he has no plans to take a pay cut. The Titans are contemplating whether Johnson is worth keeping at that price. Earlier this week, general manager Ruston Webster said there was no rush to make a decision about Johnson’s status. The six-year pro is under contract through 2016, but is coming off a season in which he rushed for 1,077 yards while earning $10 million. He’s currently rehabbing from offseason arthroscopic knee surgery. According to NFL.com, HC Ken Whisenhunt was similarly cryptic about the running back's future. "Am I optimistic he'll remain on the team?" he said. "It's a process you go through with everyone on your football team. Putting together the team is not an exact science. So we're under no deadline to do it. ..." Meanwhile, Thursday, Whisenhunt was more enthusiastic on the topic of Shonn Greene, complimenting the running back's tape. Unless Johnson rethinks the possibility of a pay cut, he's likely played his final down for the Titans.
