Chiefs ILB Derrick Johnson set a franchise record with 179 tackles in 2011 and made his first career Pro Bowl.
The NFL credited Johnson with 131 tackles, so this stat was via the team's counting. He was also voted by teammates as the Chiefs' MVP. "It will be hard to do that again next year with Jamaal (Charles) coming back," Johnson joked. Pro Football Focus graded Johnson as the NFL's fourth-best 3-4 inside linebacker, behind only NaVorro Bowman, Brian Cushing, and Patrick Willis.

Chiefs ILB Derrick Johnson already has a career-high 126 tackles through 15 games.
Johnson has gone from Todd Haley's doghouse in 2009 to joining Tamba Hali as the only Chiefs in the Pro Bowl this season. A nucleus player for the Chiefs at age 29, Johnson has emerged as one of the top inside linebackers in the game.

Chiefs ILB Derrick Johnson recorded a career-high 17 tackles while knocking down four passes against the Rams in Week 15.
Coach Todd Haley was abnormally effusive in praise, calling it a "true all-pro effort" while citing Johnson as the "epitome" of what the Chiefs are trying to build. Johnson was named AFC Defensive Player of the Week for the effort. He also merits strong consideration for the Pro Bowl as the well as the All-Pro team.

Chiefs agreed to terms with ILB Derrick Johnson on a five-year, $34 million extension. The deal includes $15 million guaranteed.
Johnson was part of coach Todd Haley's large doghouse last season, but has started every game this year and is averaging 8.1 tackles per game. His rookie contract was set to expire after this season. The highly athletic every-down linebacker turns 28 in two weeks and has proven to be a perfect fit in Romeo Crennel's defense. His days in the doghouse are over.

Jamaal Charles
Sidelined
ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported Friday that the Chiefs have "no concerns whatsoever" about Jamaal Charles' ACL recovery.
"Chiefs tell me no concerns whatsoever," Mort reported on
ESPN 32
. "... They expect him certainly to be ready for training camp. They're excited about him." Though Charles is sitting out OTAs, all signs point to him returning fully in camp. Mort also noted new Chiefs OC Brian Daboll's success with a somewhat similar player in Reggie Bush last year with the Dolphins. Bush set career highs in carries (216) and rushing yards (1,086) in Daboll's scheme.

Chiefs TE Tony Moeaki (ACL surgery) expects to be at full strength for the opening of training camp in late July.
Moeaki has been running and lifting weights, but he's still unsure about his participation level in offseason practices beginning next month. Moeaki will be more than 10 months removed from surgery by the time camp opens, so his Week 1 status should in no way be in jeopardy.
