DETROIT – Calvin Johnson is a Detroit Lions legend and a longtime teammate of Matthew Stafford, but he wasn’t afraid to choose a side for this weekend’s playoff game.
Megatron talked about the game with Kay Adams on Friday morning and said he’s rolling with the Lions.
“I love Matthew, but when he comes to Detroit, all bets are off,” Johnson said.

The Lions made the playoffs twice during Johnson’s career. He went off for 211 yards and two touchdowns against the Saints in 2011 and caught five passes for 85 yards against the Cowboys in 2014.
Johnson said he’ll be at Ford Field for the game. It’s good to know he’ll be pulling for the Lions.
