The Facts: The Browns are reportedly close to a contract extension with running back Duke Johnson.

Diehards Line:Johnson was a big part of the Browns passing attack last season, finishing the year with 90 targets and 74 receptions out of the backfield. The Browns added Carlos Hyde this offseason and took Nick Chubb in this year's draft, while also trading for Jarvis Landry, so the volume that Johnson saw last season may not be as high. That said, the fact that they are working on getting him an extension, is a good sign that they plan on leaving him as a key part of this offense.
