Reports: Ravens acquire WR Diontae Johnson from Panthers

The Baltimore Ravens acquired wide receiver Diontae Johnson from the Carolina Panthers on Tuesday, multiple outlets reported.

The Ravens will give up their fifth-round draft pick in the 2025 draft in the deal while also acquiring the Panthers’ sixth-round pick, per the reports.

Johnson, 28, has 30 receptions for 357 yards and three touchdowns in seven games this season, his first with the Panthers after playing his first five seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Panthers acquired Johnson from the Steelers in a March 13 trade.

Johnson is leading the Panthers (1-7) in receptions, receiving yards and targets (58).

In 84 career games (74 starts), Johnson has 421 receptions for 4,720 yards and 28 touchdowns since he was a third-round draft pick by the Steelers in 2019 out of Toledo. He made the Pro Bowl in 2021.

The Ravens (5-3) have scored an NFL-best 242 points this season but are one game behind the Steelers in the AFC North. The Panthers have scored only 124 points, second fewest in the NFC (New York Giants, 117).
