Diontae Johnson itching to get started with ‘different’ Ben Roethlisberger

When you think about Diontae Johnson’s brief professional career, it has been anything but smooth sailing. After all, the receiver position is completely reliant on others to see success, and the Steelers’ quarterback play in 2019 was anything but consistent.

Whether it was Mason Rudolph or Devlin Hodges, Johnson has yet to play with a quarterback of the caliber of Ben Roethlisberger for more than six quarters of a regular season.

To say he is excited about the potential of his production, as well as the offense, with Roethlisberger under center might be an understatement.
