No. 1 in the 30-second version
Bills release safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson after a one-game suspension for spitting toward a Raiders player.
NFL Network reported that the release was driven more by inconsistency in Gardner-Johnson's play than by the spitting incident. In six games with Buffalo he recorded 26 tackles, two passes defensed and one interception. Damar Hamlin is in line to start at safety.
