Ravens waive WR Diontae Johnson after he refused to play in loss to Eagles

Just two months after becoming a Baltimore Raven, wide receiver Diontae Johnson has been let go by the team. The Ravens waived Johnson on Friday, two weeks after the receiver refused to play during Baltimore's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Johnson came to Baltimore in October, as part of a trade with the Carolina Panthers. The Ravens also received a sixth-round pick in the 2025 draft, while Carolina got a fifth-round 2025 draft pick in return.

Johnson did not play in the Ravens' 24-19 loss to the Eagles on Dec. 4.
