No second confirmation yet, but this is a big time cut if true:
I'll say it right now: No. I don't want anyone on this team who calls fans "faggots" when they dare to criticize his 2.7 yards per carry average. Johnson is a bum. Always has been. For all of you complaining about Joseph Addai (why, I don't know anymore), know that we could have been stuck with this schmuck the way the Chiefs have been stuck with him for years now.
He'd fit in better with the Patriots anyway.

Well Johnson is getting what he wants. He’s wanted out of KC for two years now and he managed to malcontent his way off the team.
I need someone to pick him up quick though since I own him on two fantasy teams and was planing on dropping him this week because of the suspension. Obviously if he does go to the Patriots (perfect fit) I have to keep him because he’ll do great there.

There's no indication this is true by the way...
This site has never broken news or had sources in the past.
Sure, everyone thinks (and knows) LJ will be released but this sounds like a premature report so that in a week when LJ really is cut they can throw their name on it. The investigation is still going on and LJ definitely has not been cut or been told he will definitely be cut.

That's why
I said no second source has confirmed.

Oh, yeah, I know
I’ve just seen a ton of these reports come up. I see that you pointed that out.

good for the Chiefs
I thought they would suspend him, but kudos to them for showing some spine and dumping him.

As a Chiefs fan ...
I’d rather suspend him until the end of the season and then dump him, if only to recoup some of the contract money he’s owed.

As a Pats fan...
it would make sense for the Patriots to grab him. Our backfield has been depleted by injuries and he would be an upgrade over Maroney and Green-Ellis. Yes he is having a shit year, but I think even Adrian Peterson would be having a tough time with the Chief’s oline. And to be honest, the Colts wouldn’t be a bad fit either with Donald Brown’s injury.

hes had nothing but "shit years"
since his pro bowl line has retired though. He constantly gives up on runs, cuts to much and doesnt hit the holes hard. hes washed up. Pats can have him just hide your women!

ESPN headline - "Johnson suspended until Nov. 9"
BBS has probably already seen this by now, but for anyone that hasn’t: Johnson’s suspended.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4603752&campaign=rss&source=NFLHeadlines
No, this isn’t any “gotcha” post aimed at BBS. I’m just putting this here to inform people, that’s all. I’m willing to bet that the “source” overheard discussions where it was discussed, but the option was ultimately rejected. That’s what I’d guess.

Clarification: "... overheard discussions where **waiving** was discussed..."... wish I could edit submitted posts :(

Real GM’s Jeff Ridson has the story: According to a team source, the Chiefs are planning to cut ties with Larry Johnson for good. Johnson was previously suspended for freaking out at his head coach and making homophobic slurs in the meantime. Now, it appears the Chiefs are completely fed up.
More on this as it becomes available. Nice work, Larry.
