Johnson a Cowboy

It didn’t take long for Brad Johnson to find another job.

Five days after being released by the Vikings, the veteran quarterback signed a three-year contract today with the Dallas Cowboys, who were looking for a backup to starter Tony Romo.

Johnson, 38, spent Sunday in Denver meeting with the Broncos but opted to join the Cowboys and offensive coordinator Jason Garrett, a former Tampa Bay teammate.
