The Texans have moved on from veteran wide receiver Diontae Johnson after just two games, cutting ties with an often disgruntled player who is now off of his third NFL team this season, Aaron Wilson of KPRC reports.
After a playoff victory over the Los Angeles Chargers at NRG Stadium, Johnson was visibly upset and teammates, including team captain Azeez Al-Shaair and other key leaders, were trying to calm him down. His displeasure with his role is a recurring theme for him this season and has now led to another lost opportunity.
Johnson, previously claimed off waivers after a rocky seven weeks with the Baltimore Ravens, caught one pass in a playoff win for 12 yards. It was his only target and he played 16 snaps on offense for 22 percent of the playing time.
He’s a pending unrestricted free agent.
