Lays goose egg in WC loss Johnston (thigh) failed to bring in any of his five targets in Saturday's 32-12 playoff loss Houston.
Impact Johnston entered the wild-card round loss carrying a questionable tag, but he showed no limitations from the thigh injury while running routes. The 23-year-old's playoff debut was instead plagued by his hands after suffering multiple drops en route to a zero-catch performance. Saturday's dud comes on the heels of the Johnston's best game of his career in Week 18 against the Raiders (13-186-0). The inconsistent sophomore finished the regular season with a 55-711-8 receiving line across 15 games for the Chargers.

Active for playoff opener Johnston (thigh) is active for Saturday's wild-card game in Houston.
Impact Johnston sandwiched limited practices around a DNP on Wednesday due to a thigh issue and was given a questionable designation for the Chargers' postseason opener. Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reported Friday that Johnston was expected to play Saturday, which now has been confirmed. As a result, Johnston will team up with Ladd McConkey at wide receiver and look to build upon the 13-186-0 outburst he produced on 14 targets last Sunday at Las Vegas.

Impact Johnston logged a limited practice Tuesday and a 'DNP' on Wednesday, before returning to a limited session Thursday. Based on Fowler's report, the wideout (who put up a career-best 13-186-0 receiving line on 14 targets in the Chargers' Week 18 win over the Raiders) is on track to be available for Saturday's 4:30 ET kickoff, with official confirmation of his status, either way, set to arrive once Los Angeles' inactives are posted.

Takes questionable tag into weekend Johnston (thigh/illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's wild-card game against the Texans.
Impact Coming off producing a career-best 13-186-0 receiving line on 14 targets in the Chargers' Week 18 win over the Raiders, Johnston has been tending to a pair of health concerns that have affected his practice participation leading up to the playoff opener. Head coach Jim Harbaugh hasn't shed much light on the severity of the thigh injury or illness, but Johnston's status will now be worth keeping close tabs on leading up to Saturday's 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff. With the Chargers ruling out Joshua Palmer (foot) for the wild-card game, DJ Chark and Derius Davis would be next in line to take on more reps behind No. 1 wideout Ladd McConkey if Johnston is unable to play.

Misses practice Wednesday Johnston (thigh/illness) didn't practice Wednesday.
Impact After being limited by a thigh issue Tuesday, Johnston sat out Wednesday's session with an illness cited for his absence along with his previously listed thigh issue. Thursday's final injury report is thus slated to reveal the game status' of both Johnston and fellow wideout Joshua Palmer (foot), who has logged back-to-back 'DNPs' ahead of Saturday's playoff opener against the Texans.

Limited in practice after big game Johnston was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice due to a thigh injury.
Impact Johnston finished the regular season in impressive fashion, recording career highs in catches (13), receiving yards (186) and targets (14) in the Chargers' 34-20 win over the Raiders this past Sunday. He may have suffered the thigh injury at some point along the way, however, though his ability to practice in any fashion Tuesday offers hope that the issue isn't too serious. Assuming Johnston is able to upgrade to full practice participation by Thursday, he should head into Saturday's wild-card game in Houston without a designation.

Sets multiple career-best marks Johnston recorded 13 receptions on 14 targets for 186 yards in Sunday's 34-20 win over the Raiders.
Impact Johnston took a solid step forward from a disastrous rookie season in 2024, and he capped the campaign with the most productive game of his career. He set new career-best marks in targets, receptions and yards, including long gains of 39, 37, 22 and 19 yards. While Johnston has still shown plenty of inconsistency, he has emerged as a viable secondary pass catcher alongside Ladd McConkey as the Chargers head into a wild-card round matchup against the Texans.

Modest numbers on the road Johnston caught five passes for 48 yards on eight targets against New England on Saturday.
Impact Johnston dropped another pass and ideally would have done more with eight targets on a day where Justin Herbert threw for 284 yards and three touchdowns. There have been flickers from Johnston every so often throughout 2024, and the Chargers are clearly committed to giving him starter-level snaps, but it would be really nice to see Johnston even out his game and become more dependable. Johnston heads into his Week 18 matchup against Las Vegas with a catch rate of 54.5 percent at just 6.8 yards per target -- unacceptable numbers for a starting wideout playing in a Herbert offense.

Makes three catches Thursday Johnston secured three of six targets for 18 yards in the Chargers' 34-27 win over the Broncos on Thursday night.
Impact Johnston played a minor role as his final line implies, finishing the night with the sixth-fewest receiving yards on the Chargers. The second-year speedster had put together back-to-back five-catch, one-touchdown efforts in his previous two games, so Thursday's modest and scoreless line represented a notable downturn. Johnston will look to take advantage of the Patriots' non-Christian Gonzalez inconsistent secondary coverage during a Week 17 road matchup in New England on Saturday, Dec. 28.

Good to go for Week 16 Johnston no longer appears on the Chargers' Week 16 injury report and should be available to play Thursday against the Broncos, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Impact The Chargers released their initial Week 16 report Monday, which listed Johnston as a non-participant due to an ankle injury. However, Popper notes that Johnston's inclusion on the report was a mistake, and the Chargers instead intended to list left guard Zion Johnson with the ankle injury. Johnston is coming off a busy outing in Sunday's 40-17 loss to the Buccaneers, as he saw a season-high 10 targets and finished with five catches for 45 yards and a touchdown.

Chargers injury report: Quentin Johnston estimated as non participant ahead of Week 16 vs. Broncos Ahead of their Week 16 matchup against the Broncos, the Chargers released their first practice report.
DECEMBER 16, 2024 • USATODAY.COM
Dealing with ankle injury Johnston (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report.
Impact The ankle injury is new for Johnston, so it bears monitoring his practice statuses over the next couple of days ahead of Thursday night's game against the Broncos. Johnston's 73 percent snap share against the Bucs on Sunday was right in line with his norm, so it's unclear when he was injured. He finished with a 5-45-1 receiving line on a season-high 10 targets. If Johnston were to miss Week 16, Joshua Palmer, Jalen Reagor and DJ Chark would be in line to handle outside wide receiver snaps, with rookie Ladd McConkey spending most of his time in the slot.

Leads team with 10 targets Sunday Johnston finished with five receptions on 10 targets for 45 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-17 loss to the Buccaneers.
Impact Johnston was one of the few bright spots for the Chargers in a forgettable loss, reeling in one of quarterback Justin Herbert's two touchdown passes. The 22-year-old Johnston led his squad in targets even with Ladd McConkey (knee/shoulder) back in action Sunday. Expect Johnston to remain involved as one of the Chargers' top pass catchers in Week 16 in an exciting Thursday Night Football billing against the Broncos.
