Johnson was waived three days after he was pulled over by police in Arizona. He already had been suspended for the first eight games of 2007 for violating probation on a gun charge. He spent two months in jail and was released in May.

"We are upset and embarrassed by Tank's actions last week," GM Jerry Angelo said in a statement. "He compromised the credibility of our organization. We made it clear to him that he had no room for error."
