If you were Diontae Johnson, you’d have this response too.
The Pittsburgh Steelers receiver recognized for capturing the brief things — with A LOT of targets — hadn’t scored a goal in the routine season consideringthat January 3, 2022 (not a typo!), which was throughout the 2021 season.
Since then, he’s not discovered paydirt when … upuntil Thursday night, when he captured a late goal from Kenny Pickett in the 20-16 win over the Tennessee Titans.
So how did he respond? By looking up to the sky, as if to thank the paradises for this streak ending after 669 days of touchdown-less suffering.
I’d be this pleased too if I was him:
This is the face of a guy who hasn’t captured a TD in so long that his last one came from Ben Roethlisberger…
