Jeremiah Johnson

I purchased this 2009 Press Pass Jeremiah Johnson autograph # PPS-JJ for 55 Cents shipped. He is currently in the Canadian Football league, But did play in the NFL for the Denver Broncos after his college career with the Oregon Ducks. He has a total of 77 NFL rushing yards but his average is 5.5 YPC always wonder why guys like this who have a little even a very little bit of success never get a full chance in the league.  As a Ravens fan Justin Forsett comes to mind last year career journeyman becomes 5th in league rushing in 2014.  Maybe some of these players could have good careers if only given the chance.
