Rider gives back to Regina before returning home
Riders’ defensive back Jovon Johnson is used to taking the ball away from opposing quarterbacks, but off the field, he’s been busy giving things away.
“Instead of throwing food away that I would potentially lose just because I’m leaving I decided that it would be a nice gesture to donate food to the homeless, the people out there on the street with signs saying that they’re hungry,” Johnson told 980 CJME on Wednesday.
“My biggest thing is that I like to see people smile, see people be happy and appreciative.”
He said that he also gave away a bunch of gloves and cleats that he had.
