The Facts: The writing was on the wall from Week 1 in Buffalo. Johnson's no longer the threat he once was. The Colts will have to eat $2.5 million in dead money if they release Johnson, which they are likely to do.

Diehards Line: As Star staffer Zak Keefer notes, Johnson's underwhelming 2015 (41 catches, 503 yards, four touchdowns) was eerily similar to Reggie Wayne’s 2014 campaign. "When it goes, it goes fast," Keefer wrote. "For Johnson, it’s already gone. ..." With T.Y. Hilton, Donte Moncrief and Phillip Dorsett, this team has its young trifecta of receivers in place. That makes Johnson expendable.
