Carolina Panthers depth chart after Diontae Johnson trade

The Carolina Panthers became the latest NFL team to trade a wide receiver by dealing offseason acquisition Diontae Johnson to the Baltimore Ravens for a draft pick swap. Johnson came to Carolina in a deal with the Steelers that saw the Panthers get Johnson and a seventh-round draft pick and Pittsburgh get cornerback Donte Jackson and a sixth-round draft pick.

Now, Johnson’s on his third team in the last eight months.

This move also depletes the Panthers’ wide receiver corps in the wake of their fifth consecutive loss. Wideout Adam Thielen is designated to return from injured reserve but missed last week’s loss to the Broncos.

Here’s how Carolina’s depth chart stacks up after the Johnson deal.

Mingo: 25 targets, 12 catches, 121 yards
Coker: 15 targets, 12 catches, 186 yards, one touchdown
Moore: 14 targets, nine catches, 83 yards

NFL WR trades this season

Baltimore’s trade for Johnson is the latest deal involving a wide receiver. It comes after Davante Adams went from Las Vegas to New York, Amari Cooper went from Cleveland to Buffalo, and DeAndre Hopkins went from Tennessee to Kansas City.

The NFL trade deadline is Tuesday, Nov. 5. More players could be on the move, including more wide receivers.
