Favorite movie?
Johnson: The Express: The Ernie Davis Story.
Favorite TV show?
Johnson: I started watching The Bachelorette with T.J. Hock so that's my go-to now on Monday nights.
Favorite emoji?
Johnson: The plain face. The straight mouth, no emotion.
Favorite meal?
Johnson: Chicken parm. Homemade. It can't be frozen. It has to be freshly made.
Any hidden talents?
Johnson: I can cook really well. I can draw. I can't do true art, like realism and stuff like that, but I can draw cartoons.
If you weren't playing football, what would you be doing?
Johnson: I would probably be on the beach with my dog. He's a Saint Bernard Husky. I'd be doing that and training other athletes.
If you could have any super power, what would it be?
Johnson: Can I be like Thanos and just have the little time thing, the gauntlet? If I could have that, that would be sweet.
If you could play any other NFL position, what would you play?
Johnson: I couldn't even pick one. I love the position I play so I couldn't pick another one.
Favorite place to travel?
Johnson: I haven't traveled a lot to be honest. I just went to Florida for the first time and stayed there during pro day and combine training. So I would say Florida or somewhere down south.
One person you'd like to meet?
Johnson: Lolo Jones.
Favorite athlete of all time?
Johnson: Walter Payton and Reggie Bush.
Favorite thing about Detroit so far?
Johnson: The energy and the atmosphere. I haven't been able to get out and explore everything yet, but I've definitely heard good things. I love farmers markets and stuff like that, so I am excited to check out Eastern Market.
