Overview

• Robbins was released after averaging 39.5 yards on four punts in the opener, a performance that ranked worst by EPA among NFL punters last weekend.
• Johnston was signed to the 53-man roster following a Tuesday workout that also included Matthew Hayball and Ryan Stonehouse.
• The 33-year-old Australian has played 96 NFL games with the Eagles and Texans before a brief Steelers stint, posting career averages of about 47.3 gross and 42 net yards per punt.
• He missed most of 2024 with a Week 1 knee injury in Pittsburgh and was released in August after losing the Steelers’ job to Corliss Waitman.
• The Bills also added kicker Matt Prater to the active roster with Tyler Bass on IR, and coach Sean McDermott said the team was seeking improvement and clarity on special teams as Johnston’s Bill Burr lookalike status lit up social media.
