The AFC North has been full of controversies lately—some more legitimate than others—stemming from comments made by players, affecting every team in the division. The Pittsburgh Steelers’ controversy had to be the silliest by a wide margin.
Two days after their season ended, veteran wide receiver Diontae Johnson wrote on Twitter, “Ain gone say to much… but stay tuned”, followed by a ‘100’ emoji. This tiny comment somehow spurred debate and I’m sure filled many scintillating hours of Pittsburgh sports radio commentary.
Johnson doesn’t speak much, and it’s no surprise he hasn’t said anything as a follow-up, but his fellow wide receiver, Calvin Austin III, did speak to Noah Strackbein on the All Steelers Talk podcast and was asked to comment on the Tweet and where Johnson’s head is.
