Mr. Johnson had been suffering from cancer and took a leave of absence in May. He had been the Eagles assistant for all 10 years of Andy Reid's run, and the team was second in the league in sacks over that span, not to mention the 7 NFC East championships, 5 NFC championship game appearances, and the NFC championship.
Coach Johnson interviewed for many head coaching jobs, but took it as an honor that he got to see two of his long-time assistants, Steve Spagunolo and Jim Harbaugh, get top jobs with the Rams and Ravens, respectivally. Please take a moment to pray for the family of a man who went too young.
