CINCINNATI (AP) -- Tank Johnson, a player with legal troubles in his background, is joining the Cincinnati Bengals, a team that frequently has gone this route before.
The 27-year-old defensive tackle agreed to a contract with the Bengals.
His agent, Jerrold Colton, says the Bengals' defensive scheme is a better fit for Johnson than his previous team, the Dallas Cowboys, where he had three sacks in two seasons.
