Steelers Re-Sign TE David Johnson

The Pittsburgh Steelers announced Thursday that they’ve re-signed TE David Johnson.

“I always considered myself a Steeler,” said Johnson. “I never wanted to leave. I hope I can finish my career here.

“It’s a special place. It’s always been like home to me, being with the coaches, the guys, the organization. It’s a great place to be. The only place I want to play.”

Johnson, 29, is a former seventh-round pick of the Steelers back in 2009. He played out his rookie contract with the Steelers before signing on with the Chargers as an unrestricted free agent back in March of 2014.
