ESPN SAD NEWS: Bills head coach Sean McDermott is shocked. Bills Cornerback Taron Johnson terminated his contracts today…
Taron Johnson, a brilliant defensive back for the Buffalo Bills, inked a three-year contract extension.
The Bills announced the news without disclosing the deal’s exact sum. Johnson is now the highest-paid nickel corner in NFL history thanks to a deal that is reportedly worth $31 million, according to reports from throughout the league.
Johnson just finished his greatest professional season. He recorded 98 tackles at the end of the 2023 season in addition to 1.0 sacks, eight passes defensed, and three caused fumbles. In the end, he was chosen for the All-Pro Second Team.
Johnson stated on the Bills’ official website, “They treat me like family and I love the guys I’ve played with, I love the guys they’ve brought here.” “We’ve been right there every year, so all I want to do is keep pushing past that and make it to the Super Bowl.”
Taron Johnson was chosen by the Bills in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft. Following two seasons of professional play that demonstrated promise, Johnson was given a larger role in 2020 and made the most of the chance. He became an integral member of Buffalo’s defense, finishing the 2023 season with the second-most snap total on the team with 955.
