Ravens Don’t Want To Talk About Diontae Johnson Before Steelers Game (And Why They Won’t Release Him)

Former Steelers WR Diontae Johnson did nothing with the Baltimore Ravens in his debut against his former team. He won’t even have the opportunity to do that much in his second, as he is excused from activities this week. With the AFC North on the line, the Ravens would rather not have him around. But they also don’t want him going anywhere else—perhaps even back to Pittsburgh.

In an instance of poor timing, the Ravens issued a statement about the team and Diontae Johnson mutually agreeing to excuse him from team activities this week, shortly before HC John Harbaugh’s press conference.
