Like the Jets players who wore SHES decals on their helmets, the Tennessee Titans running back made a small gesture to pay tribute to the innocent victims of the shooting that meant something bigger than the game.
"Kind of heartbroken, so just something to try and give back and show tribute to those families knowing how much they hurt," Johnson said. "And a situation where on "Monday Night Football" everybody around the world is watching."
Johnson wrote the names of each of the victims on his shoes along with "RIP SHES" and a cross on each one.
Whether it was some sort of coincidence or a message from above, those same cleats led Johnson on an amazing 94-yard touchdown run in the second quarter.
They were the deciding points in the Titans 14-10 victory.
