Big game follows big contract Johnson led the Bills with 12 total tackles and a pass defensed in Sunday's win over Kansas City.

Impact Even though Johnson is a reserve cornerback in name, the Bills play a style of defense that he rarely leaves the field, especially against passing teams like the Chiefs. With 27 tackles, five passes defensed, a sack and a forced fumble, Johnson -- who signed a three-year contract extension this weekend -- can help those in IDP leagues. Johnson was on the field for 85 of 86 defensive plays Sunday after missing last week's game due to a groin injury.

Ready for Sunday Night Football Johnson (groin) practiced on a full basis for a third straight day Friday and does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Kansas City.

Impact Johnson missed last week's game against Houston, but as one of the league's better non-starting cornerbacks, his presence is a big boost as the Bills try to come up with a way to stop the high-powered Chiefs offense after failing miserably in two attempts last season.

Practices fully Wednesday Johnson (groin) was listed as a full participant for Wednesday's practice.

Impact Johnson was unavailable for last week's win over the Texans due to his groin injury, but it appears as though he'll be back in action Sunday against Kansas City. The 25-year-old has totaled 15 tackles (13 solo), a sack, a forced fumble and five pass defenses across his first three appearances of the year.

Out for Week 4 Johnson is inactive for Sunday's game against Houston due to a groin injury, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact The writing was on the wall for Johnson's absence when the Bills elevated Cam Lewis from the practice squad Saturday. Lewis and Siran Neal are expected to fill in some of the void left by key injuries to the Buffalo secondary, with Johnson and Jordan Poyer (ankle) both sitting this one out.

Questionable for Week 4 Johnson (groin) did not practice for the second straight day Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Houston, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports...

Impact Normally two straight DNPs to end the week would have a player ruled out for a Sunday contest, but it looks like the Bills will leave the door a crack open for Johnson to at least test out the injury pregame. With Jordan Poyer (ankle) already ruled out, the Bills have some issues in their secondary. Fortunately, they get a green opposing quarterback in Houston's Davis Mills, who will be making his first NFL road start.

Dicey for Week 4 Johnson did not practice Thursday due to a groin injury.

Impact Johnson went from limited Wednesday to a DNP on Thursday, which isn't a great sign, though he'll get one more chance to practice Friday ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans. Johnson is one of the more IDP friendly non-starters in the league, with 15 tackles, a sack, five passes defensed and a forced fumble through three games.
