Michigan's Drake Johnson ready for season following forklift accident

A forklift accident is not one that occurs much around the sports world, but Michigan's Drake Johnson knows the dangers of heavy machinery quite well, and luckily will not miss any time because of his unfortunate accident.

Johnson was struck by a forklift in April while stretching, and was fortunate enough to escape serious injuries. The running back spoke at practice Sunday, and dispelled any doubt about his status, according to Angelique Chengelis of The Detroit News.

The redshirt senior was also sidelined during his sophomore season in 2013 with an ACL injury that ended his season.

Johnson appeared in 25 games in 2015, making two starts and recording 54 carries for 271 yards and four touchdowns.
