Turry 755 Posted February 28, 2015 49ers released WR Stevie Johnson. The move will save San Francisco $6.025 million against the 2015 salary cap. Acquired from Buffalo for a fourth-round pick last May, Johnson posted a 35/435/3 line in his lone season in San Francisco. A crisp route runner, Johnson had three straight 1000-yard receiving seasons under new Jets OC Chan Gailey while the pair were in Buffalo. He should find a healthy market as a solid possession receiver. Source: Dianna Marie Russini on Twitter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vin+ 3,121 Posted February 28, 2015 Updating a previous item, 49ers WR Stevie Johnson will be asked to take a pay cut. Dianna Russini of NBC 4 in Washington reported earlier Saturday Johnson would be released, but it appears he will be asked to take a pay cut first. He will likely be released if he refuses the pay cut. Johnson is currently the de facto No. 2 receiver in San Francisco.

ATL_Predator+ 1,196 Posted March 1, 2015 I still think he's a pretty damn good WR. Sucks that he was in SF in a poorly run offensive scheme for him. This guy is going to succeed somewhere..and it's going to be big. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch 874 Posted March 1, 2015 I'd love for Stevie to go to a team like the Patriots or Chargers. I think those would be good fits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
