According to Rapoport, the two teams are swapping sixth- and seventh-round picks as part of this deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Reports said that Johnson was being released earlier in the day, but it looks like there was a strong enough market for him that a trade became possible.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Johnson, 29, is a former fourth-round pick of the Bills back in 2018 out of Weber State. He was in the final year of his four-year, $3.1 million contract with the Bills and in line to be an unrestricted free agent in 2022 when he signed a three-year, $24 million extension.<\/p>\n
He was due a base salary of $6.5 million in the final year of the deal when he agreed to a three-year, $31 million contract in 2024.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In 2025, Johnson appeared in 13 games for the Bills and recorded 57 tackles, one tackle for loss, and four pass defenses.\u00a0<\/p>\n
