EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- All game long, the Buffalo Bills gave up uncharacteristic big plays against the New York Jets. None more notable than allowing the Jets to score on a Hail Mary at the end of the first half to make it a three-point game, despite the Bills offense scoring a touchdown on three of its first four drives.
But it was on another throw when nickel corner Taron Johnson announced his return to the starting lineup in the loudest way possible, picking off an Aaron Rodgers pass with just under two minutes remaining to preserve a 23-20 win.
The 2023 second team All-Pro Johnson was playing in his first game since Week 1 when he suffered a forearm injury.
