Kerryon Johnson accused former Detroit Lions head coach Matt Patricia of being a ‘military general’ and blamed him for the injuries that ravaged his NFL career.
Johnson was selected by the Lions in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft, but he competed in just four seasons as his career came to a premature end. The 25-year-old’s time in the NFL was riddled with injuries and he has seemingly laid that at the feet of Patricia.
He appeared in 34 games for Detroit, rushing for 1,225 yards and scoring eight touchdowns. Johnson rushed for 641 yards and three touchdowns in his first season, but his career was quickly derailed by a left knee sprain in his rookie campaign.
