Interesting thing about Johnson:
Jerrod Terrel Johnson (born July 27, 1988) is a former American footballquarterback and current coach who is an offensive assistant with the Minnesota Vikings of the National Football League (NFL). He was signed by the Philadelphia Eagles as an undrafted free agent in 2011. He played college football at Texas A&M. Johnson was Texas A&M's starting quarterback from 2008 to 2010, finishing his collegiate career ranked first in school history with 8,011 passing yards and 8,888 yards total offense. He is currently second in school history in passing yards (behind Kellen Mond) and third in total offense (behind Johnny Manziel and Kellen Mond).

Makes you wonder this is a special hire to get the most out of Mond and help him transition - ? I just found his history interesting in regards to our supposed future QB
