Taron Johnson

Dane Jackson isn't the only cornerback who could have a big impact on the game Sunday. Taron Johnson could be asked to cover different players depending on the Jaguars formation.

The Jaguars most likely will have Christian Kirk lining up in the slot and he is a big part of their offense. Last year, Kirk would have 83 receptions and over 1,100 receiving yards and even with the addition of Calvin Ridley is once again leading the Jaguars this season in receiving yards with 257.

However, the Buffalo Bills could also look to Johnson to cover tight end Evan Engram. He is an athletic tight end that is moved around the Jaguars formation and treated like a big slot at times. Engram is a big part of this offense and is second in receiving yards but first in receptions through the first four games.

if the Bills can limit what Christian Kirk and Evan Engram are able to do, they have a great chance to win and the responsibility will probably fall a lot on Taron Johnson in this game.
