New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/20/2011 -- Calvin Johnson, the American football wide receiver for the Detroit Lions of the National Football League (NFL), has a rare combination of size, hands, speed, strength, leaping ability, body control and hand–eye coordination. It is often mentioned that he is also very humble and well-mannered, and did well academically at Georgia Tech. Johnson was ready to play against the Chiefs on Sunday; although he’s nursing an ankle injury, Johnson was running on the Ford Field turf and said in the morning that he’s “good to go.”
