Overview
- Diontae Johnson has been suspended for one game without pay by the Baltimore Ravens after refusing to enter their Week 13 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
- The suspension will sideline Johnson for the Ravens' December 15 matchup against the New York Giants following the team's bye week.
- Johnson, acquired in an October trade from the Carolina Panthers, has struggled in Baltimore, recording just one catch for six yards in five games and playing only 39 total snaps.
- The veteran wideout's frustration reportedly stems from his diminished role in the Ravens' offense, despite being brought in to address a need for a deep-threat receiver.
- The suspension adds to Johnson's tumultuous season, which has included trades from Pittsburgh to Carolina and Carolina to Baltimore, as well as ongoing questions about his commitment and fit with the Ravens.
