Ravens Impose One-Game Suspension on WR Diontae Johnson for Declining to Enter Week 13 Loss to Eagles

The Baltimore Ravens have announced that wide receiver Diontae Johnson has been suspended for one game due to behavior detrimental to the team.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the Ravens explained that Johnson had declined to participate in the team's Week 13 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. As a result, he will miss Baltimore's Week 15 matchup against the New York Giants following the team’s bye week.

"After careful consideration, we have decided to suspend Diontae Johnson for our next game against the New York Giants due to conduct that negatively impacts the team.
