The Pittsburgh Steelers made the tough decision last year to trade away starting receiver Diontae Johnson in exchange for Donte Jackson. The move depleted the receiver room, leaving Pittsburgh without a capable second option. It’s a hole that has yet to be properly filled.
In hindsight, Pittsburgh appears to be a massive winner, considering how far Johnson has fallen since leaving the team.
Johnson's time in Carolina was short-lived. While productive, the team was a seller at the trade deadline and shipped him off to the Ravens. There, he imploded and was eventually cut by Baltimore due to his poor attitude.
