According to Schefter, Johnson agreed to a one-year, $3.5 million dollar deal.
The incentives could spike the contract to $6 million, Schefter adds.
The Texans declined Johnson’s fifth-year option in 2019, and he wound up with the Bills.
A first-round pick in 2015, Johnson played in all 16 games as a role player in the Bills secondary.
He had 36 tackles and 5 passes defended.
Johnson was healthy for the first-time for a full season in 2019 after missing 10 games in 2016 and 15 games in 2018.
