The Facts:
HC Bill Belichick was his usual noncommittal self on Tuesday when asked whether the team might sign Johnson. But Belichick did acknowledge that the team plans to discuss it before the 4 p.m. deadline for putting in a waiver claim. "We'll discuss that organizationally this afternoon," Belichick said today.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
This after PFT suggested earlier this morning that the Pats might be a possible destination for the former Chief. As PFT's Michael David Smith explained, at first glance, Johnson wouldn't seem to be the type of guy Belichick would want around. But Belichick has had success in the past with acquiring a talented but disgruntled running back -- Corey Dillon was widely viewed as a locker room cancer with the Cincinnati Bengals, but once he became a Patriot, he suddenly became a team player and ran for 1,635 yards in 2004. Smith added: "Maybe Belichick sees a little bit of Dillon in Johnson."
