“I turned around and see who's throwing the ball and I'm like, ‘Where's Alan?’ All I see is a guy in a gray suit,” Johnson said, according to ESPN.com.

Johnson also gushed about meeting the NFL’s career receiving leader on Instagram.

Rice may hold the NFL’s biggest career receiving records, but Johnson broke Rice’s single-season receiving yards mark in 2012.
