Ravens' Diontae Johnson: Back in Baltimore
The Ravens claimed Johnson off waivers from the Texans on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Per Schefter, the transaction is a procedural move, as Johnson won't officially be awarded to the Ravens until after the Super Bowl and thus won't be an option for the team for the remainder of the postseason. Johnson will become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and depending on the contract he signs with another team, Baltimore could net a compensatory selection in the 2026 NFL Draft. Over his 12 regular-season appearances and one playoff appearance during the 2024 campaign across stints with Carolina, Baltimore and Houston, Johnson recorded a 34-387-3 receiving line on 68 targets.

Diontae Johnson: Cut by Houston
The Texans waived Johnson on Tuesday.
In moving on from Johnson, the Texans appear to be comfortable proceeding with Nico Collins, Robert Woods, Xavier Hutchinson and John Metchie as their receiver group for the remainder of the postseason. Claimed off waivers from the Ravens in late December, Johnson played a total of 38 offensive snaps for the Texans across two contests, which came in Week 18 against the Titans (22) and in last Saturday's wild-card playoff win over the Chargers (16). He accrued three catches for 24 scoreless yards in the two games and was seemingly dissatisfied with his muted role on offense, as Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston relays that the 28-year-old was visibly upset following Saturday's win and needed to be calmed down by teammates. Johnson will now be looking for a fourth team this season, though it would be surprising if another playoff team added him to its roster. Assuming he clears waivers and becomes a free agent, Johnson will be seeking his fifth team in less than a calendar year after stints with Pittsburgh, Carolina, Baltimore and Houston.

Texans' Diontae Johnson: One grab in playoff win
Johnson caught his lone target for 12 yards in Saturday's 32-12 win over the Chargers in the wild-card round.
Johnson appeared in his second game for the Texans since the club claimed him off waivers prior to Week 17. His 16 snaps were fifth among Houston wideouts, which is natural given he's been exposed to the system for a relatively short time.

Texans' Diontae Johnson: Two catches in team debut
Johnson caught two of four targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 23-14 win over the Titans.
Johnson made his debut for the Texans after he was claimed off waivers prior to Week 17. He played 22 snaps and is expected to have a role in next Saturday's home playoff game against the Chargers as well. Given season-ending injuries to Stefon Diggs (knee) and Tank Dell (knee), a playoff-experienced Johnson could be a factor. He's appeared in three postseason games while with the Steelers, which may be useful as John Metchie was removed from Sunday's game and placed in the NFL's concussion protocol.

Texans' Diontae Johnson: Expected to play this week
Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said Wednesday that Johnson will play in Sunday's game against the Titans, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Locked in as the AFC's No. 4 seed, Houston has an opportunity to evaluate young players and give Johnson some game reps in Week 18, with a strong showing perhaps allowing the wideout to take on a prominent role in the wild-card round of the playoffs. Ryans didn't comment on playing-time expectations for his starters but did seem to acknowledge the possibility of removing them early, per Alexander. Either way, Johnson will likely get some run after being claimed off waivers from the Ravens last Monday.

Texans' Diontae Johnson: Practices with new team
Johnson practiced Monday for the first time since the Texans claimed him off waivers, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Johnson, who was on the receiving end of passes from quarterback C.J. Stroud during Monday morning's session, is embracing a fresh start in Houston after a rocky seven-week tenure with the Ravens. The Texans have a glaring need at wideout with Stefon Diggs (knee) and Tank Dell (knee) on injured reserve. That suggests Johnson could have a significant role in the playoffs -- Houston is locked in as the fourth seed in the AFC and will host a first-round playoff game -- but the first order of business is finding chemistry with Stroud. Much of that chemistry may have to be established in practice settings, as it's unclear how much playing time Stroud will get in Week 18 against the Titans.
