The Buffalo Bills have signed a player who is known by many because of his striking resemblance to a famous comedian.
Veteran punter Cameron Johnston agreed to a deal with the Bills on Tuesday, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Buffalo has waived third-year punter Brad Robbins, who averaged 39.5 yards on his four punts in Sunday night’s incredible comeback win over the Baltimore Ravens.
Johnston, who is from Australia, was with the Pittsburgh Steelers last season. He played for the Houston Texans and Philadelphia Eagles prior to that.
The 33-year-old Johnston also happens to look just like comedian Bill Burr, and people were quick to point that out once again.
Looks like he could be Bill Burr's long lost brother. https://t.co/7ahtYAw3vG

There were plenty of similar jokes after Johnston signed with the Steelers last season. Burr is well aware that he has an NFL doppelgänger and discussed the resemblance during an appearance on ESPN’s “ManningCast.”
Johnston has averaged 47.3 yards per punt across 96 career games.
