Steelers coach Mike Tomlin jabs Ravens WR Diontae Johnson ahead of Week 11 matchup
The Ravens sent the Carolina Panthers a 2025 fifth-round pick in exchange for veteran wide receiver Diontae Johnson and a 2025 sixth-round pick. Johnson spent five seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers, amassing 391 catches for 4,363 yards and 25 touchdowns.
He was selected to play in 1 Pro Bowl.
Now with Baltimore, Johnson hasn’t been much of a factor through two games, and Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin was asked about his former pass catcher. Being as blunt as he typically can be, Tomlin clarified that he wasn’t thinking about Johnson, with Baltimore having more important weapons to plan for.
Johnson has just one catch for six yards, and Tomlin’s comments come just hours after Ravens head coach John Harbaugh told the media that the wide receiver would have an increased role as we advance.
