Okay maybe not the old rudi, but we've been hearing good things this off season about Rudi Johnson. Of course most Bengals fans know that during the most successful season the Marvin era, it involved a healthy and productive Rudi Johnson.
After 2 down years and injury problems, there is finally some (possible) good news about Rudi. Just recently I saw an ESPN article from the very smart John Clayton, he was answering questions and here it is:
Q: Do you think Bengals RB Rudi Johnson has enough left in the tank to regain the form he had when he rushed for more than 1,400 yards?
Seeing Johnson in mini camp was a revelation. He has worked out so hard this off season -- he's a ball of muscles. It was amazing how quickly he was hitting the holes. He has the ability to get to the 1,400-yard level, but I'm not sure he will have enough carries for that number. The days of the 350-carry back are over, and the Bengals will try to get Chris Perry involved a little. From what I see, though, Johnson has a chance to have a Pro Bowl season. He looks awesome.

I know it's only the mini camp and it's so early on, but hey! I'll take any good news about Rudi Johnson with the whole CJ situation, especially from a great source like John Clayton. |
