Steelers WR Diontae Johnson Has Added Some Weight This Offseason

The Pittsburgh Steelers reportedly wanted wide receiver Diontae Johnson to put a little more meat on his bones this offseason and the second-year player out of Toledo has done just that.

According to a Tuesday morning Instagram video from Johnson, he weighed in at 191.2 pounds at the team’s facility recently, which was likely Tuesday morning. Johnson is currently listed on the Steelers official website at 183 pounds, which is what he reportedly weighed in at when at the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine.

A little extra added weight shouldn’t be harmful for Johnson as it will allow him to be a bit more physical when it comes to absorbing contact from defensive backs.
