NFL: DT Tank Johnson agrees to contract with Bengals

Associated Press

CINCINNATI — Defensive tackle Tank Johnson has agreed to a contract with the Cincinnati Bengals.

His agent, Jerrold Colton, says the Bengals' defensive scheme is a better fit for Johnson than his previous team, the Dallas Cowboys.

The 27-year-old free agent had 33 tackles and three sacks in two seasons with the Cowboys. He was suspended the first eight games of the 2008 season after a series of legal troubles when he was with the Chicago Bears.
