Getty Calvin Johnson playing against the Miami Dolphins in 2014.
Former Detroit Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson, who was the second overall selection by the club in the 2007 NFL Draft, went down as arguably the greatest player at the position in franchise history, and was appropriately inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2021.
Johnson and the Lions, whose relationship was strained in recent years, are back on level ground, and he’s now a club legend, team advisor, and informal mentor to the current group of players.
