On March 6th, here's the latest surrounding the NFL. The Buffalo Bills are shaking up their roster this offseason by planning to release long-time Nickel Cornerback, Teran Johnson. The 30-year-old has been a key part of their defense since joining the team in 2018. Johnson quickly earned a starting spot and became one of their top defenders when healthy. He had standout moments, like a huge pick-6 return against the Ravens in the playoffs, that helped push the Bills deep into the postseason. Fans and analysts see this as another sign of the Bills moving away from their old defensive setup under former coach Sean McDermann. Johnson was versatile, often playing like a third linebacker on every down. The release is a standard cut, saving the team $1.9 million heading into next season. It clears cap space without major drama. Meanwhile, the Bills also let go of wide receiver Curtis Samuel on the same day. He joined as a free agent last year, but dealt with injuries over two seasons in Buffalo. This story is made possible by our sponsor.
