The 2022 season was a rather disappointing one overall for Pittsburgh Steelers veteran wide receiver Diontae Johnson.
Johnson, who finished with 86 receptions for 882 yards, set an NFL record for most receptions in a season without scoring a touchdown. That was disappointing not only for himself, but many in the fanbase, especially after Johnson signed a lucrative two-year contract extension with the Steelers prior to the start of the 2022 season.
That disappointing season for Johnson led to some silly trade speculation throughout the offseason and major doubts about his future in the Black and Gold.
