Bills add C.J. Gardner-Johnson on a one-year safety gamble

Buffalo signed safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson to a one-year deal worth up to $6 million to bolster a safety room depleted by departures, hoping the 28-year-old can recapture his 2024 playmaking form; his 2025 path was volatile (Texans, Ravens practice squad, Bears), so he’ll compete with Cole Bishop for a starting job in a revamped defense, aided by cap space from DJ Moore’s restructuring.

Gardner-Johnson, who has played for the Eagles, Lions, Saints, Bears and Texans, posted 51 tackles, three sacks, two interceptions and a forced fumble in 10 regular-season games last year and missed the playoff opener with a concussion; he’s aiming to help the Bills chase their first Super Bowl.
