Eagles add safety Brett Johnson

The Eagles claimed safety Brett Johnson off waivers from the Buffalo Bills on Monday.

The 6-foot-1, 194-pounder from California was signed as a rookie free agent by the Bills after the April draft but was released June 25.

A two-year starter at free safety, the 23-year-old Johnson finished his collegiate career with 107 tackles and three interceptions. In 2009, Johnson recorded 52 tackles to lead all Golden Bears defensive backs.

The native of Henderson, Nev. was a college teammate of Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson's at Cal.

Vick meets with police. Eagles quarterback Michael Vick was interviewed by a detective Monday about a shooting that took place outside a nightclub where he had celebrated his birthday, a Virginia Beach (Va.) Police spokesman said.

The spokesman, Adam Bernstein, said Vick is not a suspect, and no arrest has been made in Friday's early morning shooting. One man was wounded.

Vick was accompanied on the police interview by his attorney, Larry Woodward.

"He said he wasn't involved," Woodward said in a telephone interview with the Associated Press. "He was gone before the shooting took place, and he doesn't know who did the shooting."

Police have not identified the shooting victim, but several news outlets identified him as Quanis Phillips, one of the defendants in the dogfighting case that landed Vick in federal prison for 18 months.

A hospital spokesman confirmed that Phillips was admitted to the hospital Friday morning and discharged that afternoon but refused to disclose his injuries, citing privacy laws.

Woodward said Vick did not invite Phillips to the party and had no contact with him there.

Vick remains on three years' probation and is not allowed to associate with anyone convicted of a felony unless granted permission to do so by his probation officer.

An NFL spokesman said Monday the league is looking into the shooting and had no further comment.

Woodward said Vick left the club Guadalajara at Town Center shopping center at least 10 minutes and perhaps as much as 20 minutes before the shooting, which occurred just after 2 a.m. The shooting victim and witnesses at first were uncooperative, according to police, but Bernstein said detectives have now interviewed several people.

Police have said witnesses described the shooter as a black man wearing a white tank top and driving a white Cadillac Escalade.
