The Buffalo Bills on Monday agreed to a contract with cornerback Kevin Johnson after he was released by the Houston Texans last week, according to multiple reports.
Johnson, the No. 16 overall pick in the 2015 draft, is expected to compete for a starting job opposite Bills top cornerback Tre'Davious White. That job was held late last season by undrafted rookie Levi Wallace after the midseason release of veteran Phillip Gaines and sudden early season retirement of Vontae Davis.
Johnson, 26, was scheduled to be paid a base salary of $9.
