Todd Bowles said “an in-house matter that we’re dealing with” was why Johnson didn’t practice and wouldn’t guarantee that the cornerback would play in Sunday’s finale at New England.
“We’ll see,” said Bowles, who refused to give any details or specifics on what happened.
Johnson stood in front of his locker, and he took a similar tack as Bowles.
“Me and the head man talked about it,” Johnson said. “That’s between us.”
