The Facts: HC Sean Payton said Johnson had a minor setback when he had a scope performed on his ankle during the offseason.
Diehards Line:While the coach didn't give offer much in the way of details on Johnson's status, he did say if the right tight end became available, then the team would be interested. As Sun-Herald staffer Larry Holder suggested, it's not hard to read between the lines. Payton stills wants Giants tight end Jeremy Shockey. The deal might not happen in time for mini-camp, but don't be shocked if it goes down before or during training camp.
