Diontae Johnson On Team’s Underdog Status: ‘Once We Win, Don’t Try To Hop Back On The Bandwagon’

As of Thursday afternoon, the Pittsburgh Steelers are consensus 12.5-point underdogs to the Kansas City Chiefs ahead of the two teams meeting on Sunday night in an AFC Super Wild Card game. The Steelers sure seem to be running with, and having fun with, the fact they are considered such big underdogs for Sunday with no chance of winning in Kansas City. Thursday after practice was complete, Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson was asked his thoughts on the team being considered such big underdogs to the Chiefs on Sunday night.

“People are expecting us to go out there and have another tough loss like that so that’s what they’re expecting,” Johnson said on Thursday.
