The Facts:
Johnson said he is branching out on his own, leaving fellow Titans RB LenDale White to find his own nickname. Johnson, in fact, has already found another one for himself -- "Every Coach's Dream." "Smash and Dash have had a divorce — that's official," Johnson said after Tuesday's mini-camp practice.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to Tennessean staffer Jim Wyatt, there have been no indications of a falling out between Smash (White) and Dash (Johnson), who became good friends last season as Johnson raced to 1,228 rushing yards and White barreled his way to 15 touchdowns for the 13-3 Titans. But Johnson was adament. "I have to be my own guy, so no more Smash and Dash, that was last year," he explained. "Every Coach's Dream, that's me. Because they say every team has its own identity. I feel for me, I can't be noticed as a group any more. I am my own guy." For what it's worth, White is not aware he's now a solo act, Johnson said. By the time Johnson made his comments Tuesday, White had already left the locker room. It's safe to assume we'll get some reaction in coming days.
