Josh Johnson Holds a Mysterious NFL Record
Josh Johnson, who will soon turn 40, is not going to end his NFL career anytime soon. The veteran quarterback is reportedly set to wear the Cincinnati Bengals jerseys for the third time, competing for a backup position to Joe Burrow.
Josh Johnson's career may not be statistically successful, but it has certainly been colorful. He's only played 50 regular season games, throwing for 2,669 yards, 14 touchdowns, and 18 interceptions. However, he's played for 14 different teams, matching his touchdown total. Interestingly, this is also an NFL record.
Joe Burrow, who wore the number 9 nfl jersey, missed three of his six career seasons due to injury, making the Bengals' backup quarterback position particularly important. Neither of the Bengals' two backup quarterbacks from last season have returned this year, and the experienced Josh Johnson will temporarily become Burrow's primary backup.
