And it's going to be tough to judge how Johnson fares on that score tonight because Sparano's evaluation in special teams has less to do with measurable tackle statistics than things like "blocks, not losing leverage, (being) good in coverage," Kelly Tweeted. Whatever, at least one blogger has Johnson making the final cut.
