Summary
The Baltimore Ravens have traded for wide receiver Diontae Johnson from the Carolina Panthers in exchange for a fifth-round pick and a sixth-round pick. Johnson, who had been a key player for Carolina, adds depth to Baltimore’s already strong receiving corps led by Lamar Jackson. This move strengthens the Ravens' championship aspirations as they aim to catch the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC North. Meanwhile, the Panthers, sitting at 1-7, continue a rebuilding phase under new management, likely leading to further roster changes before the deadline.
