Titans running back Chris Johnson hasn't attended any of the Titans offseason workouts because of his desire for a new contract.
Don't expect that to change at the Titans minicamp Monday, which is mandatory, according to Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean.
On the one hand, you're going to have fans say he signed a contract and should honor it. On the other hand, Johnson might be the most underpaid player in the NFL outside of Darrelle Revis. He's arguably the best young back in the game today and will have a base salary under $1 million in 2010.
Running backs don't last very long in this league and Johnson understands that, which is why he's trying to force the Titans hand this offseason.
