Buffalo Bills Seek Replacement Punter After Cameron Johnston Injury

Buffalo Bills punter Cameron Johnston suffered a foot and ankle injury during their Week 4 victory over the New Orleans Saints, forcing the team to seek a replacement punter for their upcoming game against the New England Patriots. Johnston was hit by Saints linebacker Nephi Sewell, who was penalized for roughing the punter, and although Johnston returned briefly to hold for a field goal, he is expected to miss some time due to the injury. The Bills are considering several potential replacements including Brad Robbins, who started the season as the Bills' punter before being replaced by Johnston, as well as Ryan Stonehouse and Matthew Hayball, both of whom have prior NFL experience and were recently tried out by the Bills. Johnston's injury leaves the Bills facing their third different punter in just five weeks, complicating their special teams consistency early in the season. Head coach Sean McDermott confirmed Johnston's absence and that the team is actively auditioning punters to fill the void. Despite Johnston's injury and the punting challenges, the Bills remain undefeated at 4-0 heading into their Sunday Night Football matchup.
