Diontae Johnson tops 100 yards, appears to injure knee

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson caught 9-of-12 targets for 105 yards in a 26-17 loss to the Raiders in Week 2.

Fantasy Impact:

Johnson turned in a big game but he also appeared to injure himself on the final play of the game. With 20 seconds left on the clock, Johnson caught an 11-yard pass near the left sideline but stayed down after the play. He eventually needed help getting off of the field. The injury is suspected to be a knee issue but the team has yet to update his status. If Johnson were to miss time, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Chase Claypool would take on larger roles with James Washington operating as the WR3.
