Diontae Johnson (toe) questionable for Steelers Week 16
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (toe) is questionable for Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday.
What It Means:
Johnson did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, but he claims it was just a precautionary move. "It was just a little toe, nothing major. I am good," Johnson explained on Thursday. "I am going to be out there tomorrow. They just gave me a little two days off to let it rest. It's nothing major." Over the last two weeks, Johnson has caught 16 passes on 18 targets for 180 yards.
numberFire's models project Johnson for 8.5 targets, 5.3 receptions, and 52.6 yards on Saturday, and he's the WR17 in our Week 16 PPR rankings. The Raiders have the second-worst pass defense in our adjusted team rankings for the season.
