Diontae Johnson Likely Has Eyes On Commanders’ WR Terry McLaurin

There was a time back in 2019 when it felt like Ohio State WR Terry McLaurin could become a Steeler. He was fast, had a good pre-workout process, and the Buckeye connection couldn’t hurt. Ultimately, the Steelers passed up the chance to take him, drafting Toledo’s Diontae Johnson instead as a bit cleaner 1:1 replacement for Antonio Brown.

Fast forward more than three years leader and McLaurin may be another notch in setting a potential Johnson extension.

In an offseason that has seen receivers get paid, everyone from Christian Kirk to Davante Adams, the market has shot up.
