What happened: Desjuan Johnson and Braden Fiske joined the retired defensive tackle for a workout at the Los Angeles Rams' facility Monday. The session focused on speed and footwork as he weighs a return for the 2026 season.

Why it matters: A comeback would pair a three-time Defensive Player of the Year with Myles Garrett on a remade defensive front. The shrinking preseason window leaves less time for a return to full team work.

By the numbers: The 35-year-old last played in 2023, when Johnson was his teammate.

What to watch: A formal decision and any corresponding roster move are the next markers. Further participation in team work would clarify his preseason timeline.
