Johnson entered Week 17 with 2,074 total yards from scrimmage and 20 touchdowns, in what was otherwise a disappointing year for the Cardinals.

He set the NFL record for most consecutive games with 100 yards from scrimmage to start a season (15), and was 159 receiving yards shy of becoming the third player in NFL history with 1,000 rushing and 1,000 receiving yards in the same season.
