‘The Bills also announced that they released veteran cornerback Ken Irvin, saving another $1.9 million in salary cap money.’

‘The Bills are well under the $71.1 million salary cap before Friday’s deadline, but were not willing to pay the price for Johnson after he endured a disappointing season under first-year coach Gregg Williams.’

‘Prisco says “If he can get with the right team, with some decent players, he can be an effective starter.” He rates Johnson ahead of Jim Miller who Bills are considering. Bill Conaty also makes his list at Center at #5.’
