According to Brooke Pryor on Twitter, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson has been developing noticeable on field chemistry with quarterback Ben Roethlisberger.
Fantasy Impact:
As expected, Ben Roethlisberger has quickly gained an affinity for his sophomore wideout. Johnson is a nuanced route runner, and can read defenses well enough to be on the same page as Big Ben on most plays. JuJu Smith-Schuster remains the top option, but Johnson could develop into a 1b while James Washington and Chase Claypool duke it out for number three duties. Johnson could take a major step forward with Big Ben under center. The recipient of copious amounts of offseason hype, Johnson is our 35th ranked receiver for the 2020 season.
