Christopher Johnson or Jonson (1536?–1597) was an English physician, educator and neo-Latin poet.
Born about 1536, at Kedleston in Derbyshire, he became a scholar at Winchester College in 1549. He went on to New College, Oxford, and was made perpetual fellow in 1555. He graduated B.A. in 1558, and M.A. in 1561.
In 1560 Johnson was recommended made to Archbishop Matthew Parker by Francis Hastings, 2nd Earl of Huntingdon, and appointed to the head-mastership of Winchester College. He remained there for ten years.
Johnson, who had always intended to become a physician, practised in Winchester while he was still head-master. He was granted the degree of bachelor of medicine at Oxford, with license to practise, 14 December 1569, and proceeded M.D. 23 June 1571. In 1570 he resigned his post at Winchester, and moved to London, where he practised with in the parish of St. Dunstan-in-the-West. He was admitted a fellow of the London College of Physicians about 1580, and filled several of the college offices: as censor in 1581 and several subsequent years; elect, 28 May 1594; consiliarius, 1594–6; treasurer, 1594–6.
Christopher Johnson (born April 18, 1991) is a Canadian football linebacker on the practice roster for the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League.

During his time with the Varsity Blues, he recorded 91 tackles, five sacks, and one interception returned for a touchdown. He also played in the CIS East-West Bowl in 2013.
At the CFL Regional Combine in Toronto, Johnson impressed scouts by recording a time of 4.74 seconds in the 40-yard dash, a vertical jump of 36 inches, and a broad jump of 118 inches. All three statistics were bests among the linebackers at the Toronto Combine. Johnson was selected by the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the fifth round of the 2014 CFL Draft with the 44th overall pick. He was placed on the practice squad before the start of the regular season. Making his CFL debut against the Edmonton Eskimos on September 20, Johnson eventually played in two games with the Tiger-Cats in their 2014 season and completed two special teams tackles. He was resigned by the Tiger-Cats on March 11, 2015. After being dropped on June 13, the Calgary Stampeders expressed immediate interest and signed Johnson the following day.
