Buffalo Bills cornerback Christian Benford signed a contract extension that will keep him in Orchard Park, NY through 2029. The Bills’ 2022 sixth-round draft pick said he is thankful to be staying in Buffalo and that there is plenty of work left to be done.

The Bills will lock down the former sixth-round pick for less than $20MM per year, with Schefter adding the contract checks in at $76MM in total. Benford’s deal follows those given to Khalil Shakir, Gregory Rousseau and Terrel Bernard, as the Bills are showing tremendous faith in the emerging standouts from their early-2020s drafts.
