Following a one-game suspension Sunday, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Diontae Johnson will not participate in team activities this week, the team confirmed Monday.

In a decision that was said to be mutual, Johnson will miss preparations for Saturday's home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Johnson's playing status for Saturday's game remains unknown, and his absence this week comes as each side looks into its options moving forward, according to NFL Network.

Johnson originally received his one-game suspension after he refused to enter a Dec. 1 game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Johnson, 28, is with his third team in 2024 after he was traded from the Pittsburgh Steelers to the Carolina Panthers in March and then moved from the Panthers to the Ravens in October.

A third-round draft pick in 2019, Johnson has just one catch for 6 yards in four games (one start) for the Ravens after he had 30 receptions for 357 yards and three touchdowns in seven games (all starts) for the Panthers earlier this season.

In six career seasons, the 2021 Pro Bowl selection has 422 receptions for 4,726 yards and 28 TDs for the Steelers (2019-23), Panthers and Ravens.
