Diontae Johnson’s time with the Houston Texans is over as the wide receiver was waived on Tuesday.
Johnson, who was claimed on waivers from the Baltimore Ravens on Dec. 26, played one regular season game and one playoff game for the Texans. He recorded three receptions for 24 yards in those two games.
The Texans were Johnson’s third team this season after beginning the year with the Carolina Panthers before being traded to the Ravens on Oct. 29. He played seven regular season games with the Panthers and four with the Ravens before landing with the Texans following Tank Dell’s season-ending injury.
Johnson, 28, was acquired by Baltimore to bolster their receiver depth, but he was later suspended one game for refusing to enter their game against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 13. He never played for the Ravens again after being waived on Dec. 20.
Johnson played 16 snaps, according to Football Guys, during the Texans’ 32-12 wild-card victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. Houston will face the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs in the divisional round on Saturday (4:30 p.m. ET; ABC).
Johnson entered this season in the final year of his contract, but once he clears waivers he will be an unrestricted free agent.
