aubiefifty 16,761 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 AUBURN Former Auburn QB Jeremy Johnson lands with CFL squad Adam Spencer | 12 minutes ago Auburn QB Jeremy Johnson had an up-and-down career with the Tigers, and didn’t end up going to the NFL after his playing days were over. Now, though, he’s back on the gridiron, and will resume his career north of the border in the Canadian Football League. As you can see below, the Saskatchewan Roughriders announced on Friday that Johnson had been signed to their practice squad: Saskatchewan’s starting quarterback, Zach Collaros, is currently injured, with backup Brandon Bridge out of South Alabama taking over. Johnson is being brought in to provide depth at the position, but if he performs well in his new role, perhaps he can carve out a future in the CFL.

Tigerbelle 5,299 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I wish him much success in the CFL. What happened to him at Auburn was very difficult to watch and I felt really bad for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Marshall and Trey Mason are both on the current roster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUBwins 10,075 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Funny that 4 of the TDs were rushing the ball. I am happy for him. He looked pretty assertive in the videos that were showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
