Buffalo Bills Sign Veteran Defensive Tackles DeShawn Williams and Austin Johnson to Boost Defense for 2024 Season

The Buffalo Bills signed two defensive tackles, DeShawn Williams and Austin Johnson, to one-year deals on Thursday.

Williams is a 31-year-old veteran who had a standout season in 2023 with the Carolina Panthers, recording 33 total tackles, seven quarterback hits, and a sack. Prior to that, he spent three seasons with the Denver Broncos, where he recorded 4.5 sacks as a defensive end in 2022. Williams entered the league as an undrafted free agent with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2015 and played in four games during the 2016 season.

On the other hand, Johnson was drafted by the Tennessee Titans in 2016 and started 17 games for the Los Angeles Chargers last season, finishing with 46 total tackles and a forced fumble. This will be Johnson’s second season in L.A., and he will now be joining forces with former teammate DaQuan Jones, who also played for the Titans.

The signings of Williams and Johnson add depth to the Buffalo Bills’ defensive line and bring experience to the team. Both players will be looking to make an impact and help the Bills improve on defense for the upcoming season.
