Jets running backs coach Anthony Lynn conceded Chris Johnson has "got some miles on him" so the team will use him judiciously, reports The Star-Ledger. "We're going to have to be strategic in how we use him, and when we use him, to keep him fresh so that he can be the explosive guy that I know that he can be," Lynn said.
The Jets plan to incorporate Johnson into a rotation with Chris Ivory and Bilal Powell, the report said. Johnson seems O.K. with being part of a committee.
"This year, it’s about winning," Johnson said after signing with the Jets. "I want to come into a program where I think we could win. And if that’s what the coach feels we [have to do to] win, then that’s what we have to do."
