Taron Johnson, defensive back for the Buffalo Bills, has experienced a challenging start to the 2024 NFL season due to a forearm injury sustained during Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals. After a successful previous season, where he earned a second-team All-Pro nod, Johnson has only participated in seven snaps this year.

While he hopes to return for the Bills' Week 5 matchup with the Houston Texans, he has already missed two games and has been ruled out for Week 4 against the Baltimore Ravens. The team was initially cautious about placing him on injured reserve, reflecting optimism that he would recover sooner. In his absence, teammates Cam Lewis and Ja’Marcus Ingram have stepped up to cover the defensive void.
