ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — The Buffalo Bills have signed three free agents, including cornerback Leonard Johnson.

Johnson has five seasons of NFL experience, including last year playing for new Bills coach Sean McDermott in Carolina. Overall, Johnson has five interceptions in 62 career games, including 20 starts.

Buffalo needs depth at cornerback after losing starter Stephon Gilmore and cutting primary backup Nickell Robey-Coleman.

The Bills also signed running back Joe Banyard and receiver Corey Washington, who spent parts of last season on Buffalo’s practice squad.

Banyard is a fifth-year player who spent the past two seasons in Jacksonville.
