Chris Johnson shares photo of gunshot wound on Instagram (GRAPHIC PHOTO)

Chris Johnson has finally found a new place to call home. And, after a tumultuous offseason, the troubled running back signed a one-year deal with the Cardinals on Monday.

Following a disappointing season with the Jets, Johnson was a free agent after New York declined to pick up its option on the running back in February — but that was far from the worst part of his offseason.

In March, while still technically a member of the Jets, the running back was shot and wounded in a drive-by shooting in Orlando that killed the driver of the car Johnson was in and wounded another passenger. He was photographed days later with his arm in a sling.

Here's Johnson sharing the grisly result of that incident via Instagram:

Me getting shot made me think different. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper ; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgement thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the lord and their righteousness is of me, saith the lord.

Two months before being shot, Johnson was arrested for openly carrying firearms for having two guns in his car in Florida.

The former NFL star had to recover from the injury during the offseason in addition to looking for a new team. And that was no easy task for Johnson — whose production has dwindled since being a top-notch back just a few years ago.

The one-year contract with the Cardinals is reportedly for $870,000 with no signing bonus.

That should be enough for some bulletproof essentials.

Eli and Peyton joined by some Jets in a new DirecTV rap video (VIDEO)

If it's August in the NFL, it can only mean one thing — another Manning brothers DirecTV jam.

Eli and Peyton Manning — who had a YouTube hit with last year's DirecTV rap "Football on Your Phone" video, are at it again with a similar gangsta theme but they added a few new friends.

"Fantasy Fottball Fantasy" comes out today promoting the network's new fantasy football channel, Via For The Win.

Along with the pair's white guy rapping cadence, you'll get a few other curiosities, including:

• New Jets running back Chris Johnson giving someone his trademark dreadlocks.

•  Ex-Jets quarterback Joe Namath cuddling a mother while she's making stew (don't ask,         just watch).

• Eli getting auto-tuned before his father Archie Manning joins him in outer space.

Just don't look for any Seattle Seahawks though.

Last year's video caught everyone by surprise and seemed fresh and spontaneous. This one doesn't seem to hit the mark. You be the judge:

Chris Johnson tapes mouth shut as peace offering with umpire

Chris Johnson of the Atlanta Braves took the comical high road as a way of avoiding a collision with authority before Sunday's game by showing umpire Jim Joyce that he was sorry for an outburst that got him ejected the night before.

Johnson literally taped his mouth shut while standing in the Braves dugout, getting Joyce's attention with the help of manager Fredi Gonzalez, and tipped his cap Joyce's way after being acknowledged by the ump. 

Johnson's unique way of saying I'm sorry was a refreshing break in MLB's player-umpire cold war.

Chris Johnson pays tribute to Newtown victims on 'MNF'

It must have been an emotional few minutes when Chris Johnson sat down and wrote down the first and last names of all 26 victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting on his shoes before Monday night's game against the New York Jets.

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.
