Well, Baltimore, Pittsburgh tried to warn you. It has seemingly taken former Steelers receiver Diontae Johnson only two weeks with his new team to find himself embroiled in drama once again.
While Steelers fans laughed off the trade that sent Johnson from Carolina to the Ravens, no one could have predicted his impact would be minimal to nonexistent.
Johnson has played only 22 total snaps in his first two weeks with the Ravens, seeing just two targets and one reception for six yards during that time.
The former Steelers wide receiver proved exactly why Pittsburgh dealt him to Carolina in the first place, as Johnson took his frustrations—and immaturity—to social media following the Ravens’ Week 10 victory.
🚨JUST IN: Newly acquired #Ravens WR Diontae Johnson appears to be UNHAPPY WITH THE TEAM after only getting five snaps last night.

I did not know Tylan Wallace existed. Why did Baltimore trade for Diontae Johnson? What a waste.

Diontae Johnson sucks bc he’s diontae Johnson. He’s always been lazy, and over rated and just meh. If anything it’s motivated agahlor and Bateman. Thats the value right there. DJ is meh at best. Case in point not getting out of bounds end of 2nd quarter. Epitome of DJ right there

Diontae Johnson said he “can’t play every position” in Carolina just to barely even play WR in Baltimore lmfao
