The Facts: According to a number of NFL sources, at least a half-dozen teams have reached out to the retired Johnson to gauge whether he would consider returning to the field, but Johnson has said no.

Diehards Line: Still, Bleacher Report's Mike Freeman notes, the attempts to convince Johnson to make a comeback have been fairly fierce. Freeman added, even if Johnson wanted to come back, there's a problem. He retired as a Lion, so the Lions still control his rights. Another team would have to work out a trade to get him on its roster, like the Raiders did to acquire Marshawn Lynch. But so far, Johnson doesn't seem interested in playing again.
