Now that D.J. Humphries isn't here, it's Paris Johnson's turn to lead the Arizona Cardinals.
ARIZONA -- The NFL isn't a Hollywood movie. Dream endings are rarely forged - and in his first full offseason as a pro - Arizona Cardinals left tackle Paris Johnson Jr. found that out the hard way when mentor D.J. Humphries was cut just months ago.
Humphries was a potential cap casualty candidate prior to the injury. His lack of availability moving forward with the injury and being on the wrong side of 30 surely played a part in his sending off, too."Yeah, that's the thing. That's definitely not how I thought about the transition and how it would go. I thought it would be on Hump's own timing, he's been a Cardinal his whole career.
“I feel like everybody leads in their own way. I’ve talked to Hump about this recently. What I want to do for the room is I want to bring that Hump energy that he brought. He brought a lot of energy, excitement and happiness in the room. It was just his natural energy to where I only had to focus on me. I didn’t have to make sure other guys weren’t feeling some type of way when they came in here, because Hump brought that," said Johnson.
It's not often where a second-year players tackles a leadership role, but Johnson's been aiming for that since his high school days.
