The Padres declined Johnson's $4-million option for the 2015 campaign earlier this offseason after he missed the entire 2014 season due to his second Tommy John surgery.
The Friars are also reportedly inking another one-year pact with former Toronto Blue Jays hurler Brandon Morrow.
Johnson last took the mound as a member of the Blue Jays in 2013, posting a 2-8 record with a 6.20 ERA in 16 starts.
