Steelers Activate Diontae Johnson From COVID-19 List
3 years agoThe Pittsburgh Steelers activated wide receiver Diontae Johnson from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. Johnson just went on the COVID list on Thursday, so it's a bit of a surprise, but fantasy managers with Johnson on their rosters will take it ahead of the Week 18 regular season finale against the Baltimore Ravens in a must-win game for the Steelers. The 25-year-old is easily quarterback Ben Roethlisberger's favorite target, as Johnson has seen double-digit targets in all but four games this year. He's averaging a career-high 6.7 catches and 74 receiving yards in 15 games and has scored a career-high eight touchdowns. There's a chance Johnson may not be 100%, but he's a must-start in fantasy against a Ravens secondary that has allowed the most passing yards per game (281.7) this year.
