Diontae Johnson has had quite the up-and-down season for the Steelers. He was injured in their week one blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers and consequently missed the next four games. He returned as the Steelers came out of the bye week and played great, amassing 20 receptions and 254 yards over his next three games. He even picked up his first touchdown in 22 months in the form of a 4th quarter-go-ahead score against the Tennessee Titans.

But since that moment, Johnson’s season has taken a bit of a nosedive. His targets have still been there, at least to an extent, he’s had 12 over the past two weeks.
