    PHILADELPHIA (Ticker) -- The Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday signed wide receiver-kick returner Bethel Johnson to a one-year contract.

    Financial terms were not disclosed.

    Johnson, 28, played in 11 games for Minnesota last season, catching nine passes for 156 yards. He also averaged 23.4 yards on 45 kickoff returns.

    In Philadelphia, Johnson could fill the role as the club's primary kickoff returner, a role held by Reno Mahe last season.

    Johnson spent his first four seasons with New England, where he was a part of two Super Bowl-winning teams.

    Workout warrior. He burned it pre-draft and New England jumped. A quick look would have told you second day guy from the beginning.

    I am sure they watched zero film on the guy. I mean they only won three of the last 6 superbowl's while building there core through the draft. You should look into becoming a scout. Since Mangini is a former patriot, he could use your help to make sure nothing like that ever happens again.:breakdance: :breakdance: :breakdance:
