Quentin Johnston looking to take next step in Chargers tenure​

Story by Andrew Parsaud

The Los Angeles Chargers believed they found their next WR1 when they drafted Quentin Johnston out of TCU in 2023. Two years later, it's been anything but that. Johnston seriously struggled with drops as a rookie and totaled just 431 yards and two touchdowns in 17 games.

He did have a better season in 2024, with 55 catches for 711 yards and eight touchdowns. However, it much of the same story, as Johnston had seven drops last year and an absurd 7.7 percent drop rate. Johnston hasn't been talked about much this offseason, given the team found Ladd McConkey in last year's draft and brought in rookie Tre Harris to help jumpstart the offense.

What is the average drop rate in the NFL?

We all knew QJ's weaknesses were that he had drop issues (especially for a high end guy) and that he didn't fight hard enough on contested catches.

Last year, through Week 16, the average drop rate was 3.6%.

When you have a 7.7% drop rate and two analysts project a rookie and a 31-year-old to start ahead of you, you might want to rethink quotes like, "I'm always the outlet outside of the field, too. I always invite [teammates] to my house, we can just chill. I feel like a big thing is not just on-the-field stuff, but getting that connection off the field."

Still hoping QJ finds his way.
