‘Disgusting Play That Should Never, Ever Be Tolerated’: Taylor Lewan Rips Into Diontae Johnson For Lack Of Effort

It’s been a tough week for Pittsburgh Steelers’ wide receiver Diontae Johnson.

From the frustrations in Cleveland in a 13-10 loss to the Browns, to a reported argument in the locker room with safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, to a dropped touchdown against the Cincinnati Bengals Sunday, Johnson had his fair share of frustrations. It snowballed after that though as he put some poor effort on tape on the very next rep after his dropped touchdown that should have been challenged for a touchdown.

On a third and nine play, Johnson walked off the line of scrimmage on the play and then stood around as running back Jaylen Warren fumbled the football.
