The pipeline taking washed-up NFL receivers to Canada continues to flow.

In recent weeks, first-round flame-outs David Boston and Charles Rogers have tried to resurrect their football careers with a league that soon will be made even less relevant when the Buffalo Bills begin playing games in Toronto.  Now, a second-round bust is getting in on the act.

Former NFL receiver Bethel Johnson is joining the Toronto Argonauts.

Johnson, touted as a “two-time Super Bowl Champion” in the article announcing the move, really didn’t add much to either of the two championship seasons he spent with the Patriots.  Johnson was traded to the Saints in 2006, signed with the Vikings in 2006 after being cut by the Saints, and bounced between the Eagles and the Texans in the 2007 before being cut by Houston prior to the season.

“Bethel Johnson is a speedy and athletic ‘deep threat’ receiver who is also an accomplished return man,” Toronto G.M. Greg Mohns said.  “He should give us great depth, and we expect him to come in and challenge for a starting position.  It was a five-month recruitment process and we are thrilled to have him as a part of the Argos family.”

Said Johnson:  “I’m excited to get back on the field again and about the great opportunity I have ahead of me with the Argos.  Training camp isn’t about playing around; you come into camp with the ultimate goal of winning a championship.  I’m looking forward to getting on the field and winning again.”
