Bills Make Taron Johnson NFL's Highest-Paid Nickel CB with $31M Extension

The Buffalo Bills have locked in Taron Johnson through 2027, rewarding his performance and securing cap relief for future roster moves.

The Buffalo Bills have secured Taron Johnson with a three-year contract extension, making him the highest-paid nickel cornerback in the NFL.
Johnson's new deal is valued at $31 million, tying him to the Bills through the 2027 season.
This strategic move comes after the Bills made significant changes to their secondary, releasing veterans Tre'Davious White, Jordan Poyer, and considering the retirement of Micah Hyde.
Johnson, who was drafted by the Bills in 2018, has been a key player, earning Second-Team All-Pro honors last season.
The extension not only rewards Johnson for his performance but also provides the Bills with cap relief, allowing for further roster adjustments.
