Diontae Johnson has now played two games for Baltimore since being acquired in a trade from the Carolina Panthers for draft picks.
Since joining the Ravens, Johnson has recorded one catch on six targets for six yards. Still, head coach John Harbaugh predicted Monday that the talented wide receiver will play a more prominent role as the season progresses.
John Harbaugh said Diontae Johnson's workload will continue to increase. He expects it to rise this week. This week there is a game against Johnson's former team, the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Coincidentally, Johnson meets the team that drafted him into the NFL, the Pittsburgh Steelers. Baltimore's top two pass catchers are Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman, but Johnson could start taking snaps and catches away from Nelson Agholor or Tylan Wallace.
