| Bills Mull Over Future Of WR Stevie Johnson | | |
Bills coach Chan Gailey would like problem child wide receiver Stevie Johnson back next season "with stipulations," according to Leo Roth of the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. "You love what Stevie does on the field — before he scores touchdowns," said Gailey, who benched Johnson for the final three quarters of Sunday's season-ending 49-21 loss to New England after Johnson drew a 15-yard penalty for excessive end zone celebrating, his second such penalty of the season. "(For us) you just have to decide if he — and we — can get that under control." Johnson, who will be an unrestricted free agent, drew a costly penalty in a loss to the New York Jets in late November for an animated TD celebration. "To say it doesn't have an impact would be a lie, but you have to look at the whole body of work and not give a knee-jerk reaction to something that happened," said Gailey when asked if Johnson's latest antics would impact potential contract talks. "At same time, it's not the first time. Every evaluation is heavy when talking about things like this." Johnson finished tied for 18th in the league with 76 catches for 1,004 yards and seven TDs.
