Defensive End Charles Johnson to visit New York Giants on Sunday

Defensive End Charles Johnson to visit New York Giants on Sunday.

As soon as defensive end Charles Johnson was released by the Carolina Panthers earlier this week, the rumors began to circulate that he would be landing in New York for an interview.

Today, NFL.com confirmed that rumor.

The New York Giants could be in the market for a new high-profile defensive end if they decide to let Jason Pierre-Paul walk. Could Charles Johnson fill the void?
Johnson, who was released by the Carolina Panthers on Thursday, will visit with the Giants on Sunday, a source informed of his plans told NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport on Saturday.

Johnson who is coming off a down season, is still a premier defensive end who can contribute to his next team.
