‘Hell Yeah, I’m Coming Back:’ WR Diontae Johnson Says He’s Playing Against The Rams

Following their Week Six bye, the Pittsburgh Steelers could get a big boost offensively. Injured in the season opener, WR Diontae Johnson told reporters Tuesday he’s coming back for the team’s next game, their Week Seven contest against the Los Angeles Rams.

“Hell yeah, I’m come back,” Johnson said via The Trib’s Chris Adamski earlier today. “I’ve been working my behind off the last three, four weeks.”
