Sports Illustrated’s Noah Strackbein on why he thinks the Steelers should consider bringing back Diontae Johnson:
“What would be better than getting Aaron Rodgers a wide receiver that is an elite route runner? Someone he knows is always going to be open, and that he can have perfect timing with? Only to combine it with Metcalf being an elite wide receiver and three very fast slot players in Calvin Austin, Roman Wilson and Scotty Miller? Nothing. Johnson remains the prototypical wide receiver for exactly what the Steelers need this season. Again, if he’s able to still play at a high level.This is all the other stuff aside, obviously. Johnson caused some issues when he was in Pittsburgh, having moments where he didn’t put forth his best effort during plays, fought with teammates and coaches in the locker room, and was eventually moved on from as the team tried to remove all distractions from their facility. But here they are, still looking for a Johnson replacement. And with his latest release, they should at least consider him.”

A.T. Perry would be a good fit if available.
Yo stop trying to trade Calvin. You do this twice a week
Diontae wouldnt be a good fit on the team and would be bad for the locker room. No thank you….
Go for Hunter Renfrow of waivers
