Former Jets and Titans running back Chris Johnson was shot in the arm last night and is currently recovering in an Orlando hospital, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com (via Twitter). The Jets declined to pick up Johnson’s 2015 option last month, making him an unrestricted free agent.
Rapoport adds in a separate tweet that Johnson was riding in a car with a few friends when the car was hit by gunfire. Rich Cimini of ESPNNewYork.com tweets that one of Johnson’s friends was killed in the shooting, and no arrests have been made at this time.
