2018 Buffalo Bills scouting report: cornerback Phillip Gaines

The Buffalo Bills had a fantastic defensive secondary in 2017, as the entirely revamped unit outperformed the 2016 squad by any measure imaginable. With free agency making it incredibly difficult to keep rosters the same from year to year, the Bills parted ways with two key members of that secondary, E.J. Gaines and Leonard Johnson.

Both players were replaced via free agency, with the Bills signing veterans to step in at both outside and inside corner. In the latest installment of our “90 players in 90 days” series, we look at the man with a familiar surname who will most likely take over as Buffalo’s new nickel corner in 2018.
