Report: Steelers didn’t place waiver claim for WR Diontae Johnson

One of the biggest questions of the week was whether or not the Steelers would attempt to reunite with former Pittsburgh wide receiver Diontae Johnson following his falling out with the Baltimore Ravens. According to ESPN’s Field Yates, the Steelers did not place a claim for Johnson after the receiver was placed on waivers over the weekend.

Besides the Texans, one other team attempted to claim WR Diontae Johnson off of waivers, per source: the Chargers.

Houston had priority over Los Angeles, as two wideout-needy team competing in the AFC claimed Johnson.
