Diontae Johnson Waived by Ravens, Potential AFC Suitors Emerge

The wide receiver's tumultuous season continues as speculation grows about his next NFL team, with the Steelers, Chiefs, and Bills among possible destinations.

  • The Baltimore Ravens waived Diontae Johnson on December 20 after a brief, unproductive stint with the team, where he recorded just 6 receiving yards in four games.
  • Johnson had been suspended by the Ravens earlier in December for refusing to play and was subsequently made inactive for their Week 16 matchup against the Steelers.
  • Speculation surrounds Johnson's next team, with the Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, and Los Angeles Chargers named as potential landing spots by ESPN's Adam Schefter.
  • Steelers fans and analysts are debating a potential reunion with Johnson, now permissible under NFL rules, as the team's wide receiver corps faces injuries.
  • Johnson's release follows a turbulent season that saw him traded twice and criticized for on-field performance and off-field controversies, which have reportedly hurt his free-agent value.
