Diontae Johnson Trade Hyped by NFL Fans as Ravens Land New WR for Lamar Jackson

Baltimore Ravens star quarterback Lamar Jackson will have a new weapon in the team's passing attack, as ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the Ravens acquired star receiver Diontae Johnson from the Carolina Panthers on Tuesday.

The Ravens will be sending a fifth-round draft pick to the Panthers while also recouping a sixth-round pick, so they managed to bolster their receiving corps without giving up much.

Baltimore already has a talented crop of wideouts, with second-year receiver Zay Flowers leading the team with 527 yards and Rashod Bateman not too far behind with 422 yards. Tight end Mark Andrews leads the team with four receiving touchdowns.
