Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson faces a civil lawsuit from FlexWork Sports Management LLC, which says it suffered thousands of dollars in losses after Johnson failed to show up for a youth football camp in May.
Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported Tuesday details in the lawsuit show Maxx Lepselter, Johnson's agent, texted camp organizers just 13 minutes before the camp was scheduled to open, saying the wideout's flight was canceled.
Johnson was then scheduled to show up later in the day, but decided he didn't want to wait for another flight and left the airport, according to the lawsuit.
