Derrick Johnson

The run stuffer himself, Derrick Johnson, came back with a vengeance last season.

More from KC Kingdom

The 6’3″ 242 pound linebacker destroyed opposing running backs. During the 2015 season, Johnson padded his stats with 95 tackles, 21 assists, and four sacks. He also picked off two passes for 23 yards.

During his 10 years with the Chiefs, Johnson has: 13 interceptions for 300 yards, 820 tackles, 170 assists, 26.5 sacks and seven forced fumbles. An amazing career for an amazing player.

The only problem with Johnson is his age. His already 33-years-old. The Chiefs need to take advantage of the short time he has left to try to get him and the KC Chiefs a Super Bowl trophy.
