Steelers' Diontae Johnson (back) questionable to return
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles with a back injury.
Johnson appeared to tweak something and was working with trainers on his core on the sideline afterwards. The sophomore wideout did deal with a sports hernia injury this offseason, so hopefully this isn't a flareup related to that issue.
If Johnson misses much time, expect James Washington and Chase Claypool to see a bump in playing time across from JuJu Smith-Schuster. Claypool has seen increased involvement so far this week and has flashed impressive speed and agility for his size.
