Ex-Panthers WR Diontae Johnson admits Browns were only team to contact him this offseason

Ex-Panthers WR Diontae Johnson admits Browns were only team to contact him this offseason A former Carolina Panthers wide receiver may be on his last chance in the NFL. Diontae Johnson, now a member of the Cleveland Browns, chatted with reporters from the site of his new team's mandatory minicamp on Wednesday. The 28-year-old and one-time Pro Bowler talked about trying to move on from a tumultuous 2024 season, one where he picked up four different stints with three different teams. "Everybody's gonna have their opinions," stated Johnson, who also admitted that the Browns were the only team to contact him this offseason. "At the end of the day, I'm the only one in that room that really know what be going on. They're entitled to their own opinion. I can only go off of what I know and try to go off of what I put out there, my best effort. Last year's last year, I'm trying to change that narrative and move the right way and keep going." Johnson's campaign began with the Panthers, who acquired him in a trade with the Pittsburgh Steelers at the start of the new league year. Then Johnson, despite leading the team in every major receiving stat through eight weeks, was shipped away to the Baltimore Ravens in a deal involving a late-round draft pick swap. The Panthers didn't disclose exactly why they cut ties with Johnson, but their reasoning may have become evident during his stay in Baltimore. After refusing to enter a Week 13 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, Johnson was suspended and eventually waived by the Ravens. He'd then wind up with the Houston Texans right ahead of their playoff run. Johnson's run there, however, was cut short—as the Texans parted ways with him after he made a scene in the locker room following the team's wild-card round win over the Los Angeles Chargers. His season essentially came to an end when he was claimed by the Ravens a day later. Baltimore, who had no intentions of actually playing Johnson for the remainder of their postseason appearance, picked him up in an effort to improve their compensatory draft pick formula . . . and maybe to stick it to the disgruntled pass catcher. So, after all of that, perhaps Johnson was lucky to have even one team show interest in him. Follow @ThePanthersWire on Twitter/X for more Panthers content.

Buccaneers Minicamp Offers First Glimpse Of Chris Godwin Recovery Timeline

Buccaneers Minicamp Offers First Glimpse Of Chris Godwin Recovery Timeline originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Tampa Bay Buccaneers receiver Chris Godwin and his injured ankle are, by all accounts, trending in the right direction as the franchise thinks he will be ready for Week 1. Advertisement However, over the past couple of months, we haven't heard too much about how Godwin is actually traveling in his rehab. But we might get a good indication of where exactly Chris is in his recovery timeline when minicamp rolls around in a couple of days. And ESPN's Jenna Laine notes that it will be a key storyline in how much or little Godwin participates in the offseason work. "Godwin was off to a blistering start last season before the injury in Week 7 ended his season," Laine writes. "So, what will his participation look like? (Will he be on the sideline the whole time? Will he work off to the side with a member of the training staff? Will he do positional drills?) Advertisement "General manager Jason Licht has said he expects Godwin to be ready for Week 1 but hasn't gone into detail beyond that. This could be the first time this offseason that we see how he's recovering." Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (14) runs in for a touchdown during the third quarter against the New Orleans Saints at Caesars Hinton-Imagn Images Now, it won't be the end of the world if Godwin is only on the sidelines as the Buccaneers take a cautious approach with their Pro Bowler. Why? Because the offense still has Mike Evans, Cade Otton, Jalen McMillan, and the newly drafted first-round receiver Emeka Egbuka. So the Buccaneers will be just fine. That also allows Godwin to go through his rehab slowly and hit all the key markers he needs to in building up for what many hope will be a Week 1 start. Advertisement Would Godwin being on the grass catching passes be great at this stage of the offseason? Absolutely. But what would be even better is Chris suiting up for Week 1.

Miami Dolphins need a CB and Jaire Alexander cut and suddenly available

MIAMI GARDENS — The Green Bay Packers cut Pro Bowl cornerback Jaire Alexander and he would seem perfect for the Miami Dolphins, about to trade Jalen Ramsey. Right? Well, maybe. Ramsey is not expected to report to Dolphins mandatory mini-camp June 10-12 in Miami Gardens, as the team continues to seek a trade. Advertisement Ramsey, 30, is a seven-time Pro Bowler. Alexander, 28, is a two-time Pro Bowler. Jaire Alexander cut by Packers: Fit for Dolphins? Alexander is fast, athletic, attacks the ball, is a willing tackler and makes plays. The problem is he's often injured. Alexander has averaged only 8.5 games plays over the last four seasons, including seven games played in each of the last two seasons. Alexander has had injuries to his: shoulder, groin, quadriceps, back and knee. The Dolphins, generally, now desire to get younger and add fewer injury-prone players. But the Dolphins are desperate at cornerback and so an incentive-laden one- or two-year deal could make some sense. Advertisement Like many high-profile cornerbacks, Alexander's personality has been at times described as: charismatic, outspoken, passionate, emotional, loud and playful. Miami would have to consider how he would fit into the 2025 locker room. Bookmakers cite Dolphins as Jaire Alexander destination According to odds from the Dolphins are the fourth-most likely team to add Alexander. They say the 49ers, Raiders and Rams are the top three choices. Could Alexander's availability affect what Miami receives in a Ramsey deal? Perhaps. Anything in the range of a fourth-rounder or better would seem acceptable for Ramsey, who is an extremely talented lone wolf prone to mood swings. Advertisement Alexander had five interceptions in 16 games in 2022. Green Bay Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander (23) gestures to the fans before the game against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field in Chicago on Nov. 17, 2024. The problem is he's hardly played in the three seasons around that campaign. Worth a flier? Stay tuned. Patrick Paul: Miami Dolphins' LT already doing some 'top-tier things.'
