    LOL. Wut happened to trading him? Oh, no takers.....

    When I first saw that tweet saying we were dangling him, I never laughed so hard.

    One year too late.












    I just want to mention, for the record, I wanted Landon Collins in that draft.

    Say what you want about Kevin Johnson but I’d rather keep him than Colvin.

    At least, Kevin was good his first two years, he was just very injury prone.

    Colvin on the other hand was just some JAG, who had one decent year playing next to two shut down corners in Ramsey and bouye.

    It wouldn’t surprise me at all if he has a bounce back season and we’ll be here complaining about letting him go.

    I'd be ok with him going elsewhere and playing better. He just haven't for his. Too many injuries.

    He showed promise but as his injuries mounted his performance and abilities dwindled. This past year he was a liability on the field. He’ll get picked up and be on a roster for camp but unless he shows he can be the guy he was his rookie year I suspect he’ll wind up in the AAF or XFL

    That 81.2 season is why they let Bouye go

    Best part of Kevin Johnson was his sister from Hard Knocks.

    Wouldn't be surprised if he went to another team and played well. Not that I think the Texans are making a mistake by cutting him, it's just their luck.

    His injuries led him to form some really bad habits, which in turn caused more injuries. His inability to improve his technique and learn how to properly cover and tackle basically cost him his job.
