Johnson's performance a critical part of offense's productive day

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- People have been waiting all season for Diontae Johnson to have this type of a game.

In the Steelers' 24-16 victory over the Panthers on Sunday afternoon at Bank of America Stadium, Johnson was every bit of the No. 1 receiver he's paid to be, hauling in 10 catches for 98 yards.

While it's a nice stat line, that certainly doesn't jump out as one of his best and certainly doesn't compare with a guy such as Justin Jefferson, who's a fantasy owner's dream.
