Steelers WR Diontae Johnson Rumors Overblown | Evaluating Teryl Austin | Tremaine Edmunds a Target?

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Tony Serino of AFC North Talk. The Pittsburgh Steelers aren't having problems with Diontae Johnson, despite any rumors you've heard on Twitter or social media. Here's why Johnson's just fine and could get a lot more production next season with Kenny Pickett and an improved offense. Also, defensive coordinator Teryl Austin coached a defense that finished as the leading intercepting unit, top 10 in points allowed and number 13 in yards. How should he be evaluated on his first season with T.J. Watt missing half the year and the Steelers finishing 9-8. Finally, the Steelers are going to have money to spend in free agency. Should it be spent on Tremaine Edmunds in free agency as a new linebacker to put the defense together?
