Quentin Johnston caught 1-of-4 targets for 58 yards and one touchdown in the Chargers’ Week 9 loss to the Texans, adding one rush for five yards.

If you didn’t start Johnston, we can’t blame you. It’s been a rough go. Johnston deserves credit for his long score. He caught a pass on a slant route and took off downfield via a post pattern, churning his legs through a shoestring tackle attempt. It’s the type of play we expected Johnston to be featured on in OC Mike McDaniel’s offense, rather than the deep routes he is frequently stuck running. Johnston also earned an end zone target, but was unable to secure it. With Justin Herbert (left hand) ailing, Johnston is tough to trust as a FLEX against the Ravens next week.
