Ravens suspend WR Johnson for refusing to play
Briefly

Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta stated that Diontae Johnson's suspension was due to him refusing to enter the game against the Philadelphia Eagles. DeCosta described this as a "difficult decision," indicating the significant internal considerations that shaped the disciplinary action.
Despite being in uniform for the game versus the Eagles, Johnson notably did not play a single snap, raising questions about his role with the team, particularly given that starting receiver Rashod Bateman was injured in the second half.
Acquired from the Panthers on October 29, Johnson has made minimal impact since joining the Ravens, playing only 39 snaps and making just one catch. This lack of production could hinder his value as he approaches free agency.
Coach John Harbaugh's noncommittal stance regarding Johnson's future with the team further underscores the uncertainty surrounding his status, particularly following the suspension and his limited contributions on the field since his arrival.
