Diontae Johnson Limited With Shoulder Injury
2 years agoPittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (shoulder) finds himself on the injury report for the first report of the year on Wednesday, and he was listed as a limited participant in practice. Johnson said he feels like he's on the right trajectory in his healing process after getting injured in the preseason finale, but he also didn't give a concrete update on his availability for Week 1 against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals. The 26-year-old didn't sound sold that he'd play this weekend, so fantasy managers should prepare for a worst-case scenario now. If he's active, he'll be a WR2 in fantasy lineups, but if he's not, Chase Claypool and rookie George Pickens would see much larger roles in the passing game alongside tight end Pat Freiermuth.
