Johnson ran for more than 1,000 yards this past season and found the end zone six times for the Bulls.
A star locally at Sweet Home high school, the Bills are getting a running back who has seen his share of success right here in Western New York.
The running back helped power the Panthers to a 33-2 mark over his high school career, which included three Class A Section VI Championships.
Signing with the program in 2014, Johnson redshirted his freshman year and was forced to red-shirt again in 2015 due to injuries.
