WR Diontae Johnson Exits Preseason Game With Shoulder Injury, Out For Game

After a 38-yard gain down the left sideline, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson came up shaken up and exited the game with a shoulder injury. He went to the locker room and will be out for the rest of the game, per a report from CBS Sports’ Evan Washburn on the TV broadcast.

Johnson going down for any period of time would be a major blow to the Steelers, as he’s expected to slot in as the team’s WR1. Hopefully, Pittsburgh is just being cautious with Johnson given that it’s a preseason game and this isn’t something that will drag into the regular season.
