Diontae Johnson Denies Allegation He Punched Mitch Trubisky Before Jets Game

Pittsburgh Steelers’ wide receiver Diontae Johnson is denying a CBS claim that he punched quarterback Mitch Trubisky prior to the team’s Week 4 game against the New York Jets.

Months after a verbal argument took place between Johnson and Trubisky at halftime against the Jets, CBS Sports radio host Greg Giannoti joined Boom Esiason on the Boomer and Gio Show to discuss the game. Giannoti, a former morning show host on Pittsburgh’s 93.7 The Fan, alleged that Johnson punched Trubisky earlier in the week leading up to the game.

Is this really true?
