It took awhile, but the talks between the Titans and running back Chris Johnson have paid off, as Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean reports that the deal between the back and the team are done.
Johnson is getting a reported four-year deal that is worth $53.5 million. $30 mil of the money is guaranteed. Johnson has been a holdout since the start of camp, but should be in with the team and ready to go for the clubs season opener with the Jaguars.
Negotiations between Johnson and the Titans had picked up over the past two days as as the regular season closes in. Titans coach Mike Munchak said earlier this week that Johnson would likely need to have something done by this weekend in order to be able to be a full-go for the opener in Jacksonville.
