The Facts:
The Bengals are scheduled to hold a mandatory mini-camp June 12-14. Johnson has vowed that he will not be at mini-camp, training camp or any activity associated with the Bengals. However, some who know Johnson believe he might change his mind and report to the team for mini-camp, averting the $8,638 daily fines. Johnson's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, told NFL Network insider Adam Schefter on Friday that his client has not made any decisions yet and that he and Johnson will be discussing the matter in the two weeks ahead.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Of course, money might not be the driving issue here anyway. By not working out in Cincinnati this offseason, Johnson is foregoing a $250,000 workout bonus in his contract. And if Johnson fails to show for training camp, as he has vowed, he would be subject to daily fines of $15,116 -- some big money. ... As we suggested in a previous item, we suspect the notoriously tight-fisted wideout will have a very hard time with fines like that.
