Cleveland Browns wide receiver Diontae Johnson is currently on his fifth team in the last16 months. The Pittsburgh Steelers traded the Pro Bowl wideout to the Carolina Panthers last March. He was then traded to the Baltimore Ravens ahead of the trade deadline. And it's his time with the Ravens that has brought his name into headlines over the last 24 hours.
Johnson revealed that he refused to enter a game for the Ravens because he was cold and didn't want to put bad tape on display.
"I wasn't getting no run plays, no passing plays or nothing," Johnson said. "It was cold. End of the third, going into the fourth, they were like, 'Tae, we need you.' I was like, 'Nah, I don't think it's a good idea for me.' Like my legs are already ice cold and I didn't wanna go out there and put bad stuff on film."
Some things you should probably just keep to yourself. Even if Johnson does have a nice season with the Browns, openly admitting you quit refused to enter a game and checked out isn't a good look whatsoever and it will stick with some teams who will automatically have you off their free agent board when the time comes.
