Chet Johnson attended the University of Washington, where he played college baseball for the Huskies from 1937–1939. Johnson entered pro baseball in 1939, and his active career would continue for the next 18 seasons, all of them in the minor leagues, apart from his month-long stint with the Browns in September 1946.
During his MLB trial, Johnson made three starts and appeared twice in relief. He did not register a decision or a save, allowing 20 hits, 13 bases on balls and ten earned runs in 18 innings pitched. He struck out eight. He retired from the game in 1956 as a member of the Sacramento Solons, one of six Pacific Coast League teams he played for during his 13 full or partial seasons in that circuit.
