Diontae Johnson
WR - PIT
2020 Outlook
Expert Note
View More NotesHe could be one of the biggest steals in fantasy football, period. Despite being thrown to by Devlin Hodges and Mason Rudolph, Johnson was able to post WR2 or better numbers in 31.3 percent of his games as a rookie in 2019. Now getting Ben Roethlisberger back under center, he might just explode. Don't forget that there were room for two top-tier receivers with Roethlisberger under center.

Steelers WR Diontae Johnson says he's "100 percent" following offseason sports hernia surgery.
Fantasy Impact
Johnson suffered the injury in Week 2 last year and still managed to haul in 59 receptions for 680 yards and five touchdowns on the season. Those numbers are even more impressive when you consider the atrocious quarterback play Pittsburgh got in 2019. Johnson, a third-round pick last year, is a wildly popular breakout candidate in fantasy right now.
