Ravens' Diontae Johnson Benched Without Explanation, Lamar Jackson Expresses Frustration

Baltimore's head coach John Harbaugh remains cryptic on wide receiver Diontae Johnson's lack of playing time despite the team's offensive struggles.

Diontae Johnson, acquired by the Ravens from the Panthers in October, did not play a single snap in the team's 24-19 loss to the Eagles, raising questions about his role.
Head coach John Harbaugh declined to provide clarity on Johnson's status, citing 'moving parts' and stating he needed more information before commenting further.
Quarterback Lamar Jackson publicly voiced his support for Johnson, emphasizing the team's intent to utilize him after trading for the wide receiver midseason.
Johnson has participated in just 39 snaps across five games with Baltimore, recording only one catch for six yards, despite being a productive player earlier in the season with Carolina.
