Injury Status: Healthy
by Wyatt McClintock
Los Angeles Chargers wideout Quentin Johnston has played his way off fantasy radars again after being a trendy sleeper during draft season. Johnston is the PPR WR90 on a points-per-game basis, averaging 5.0 points per game. In his five games, he hasn't surpassed 7.5 PPR points or had more than three catches in a game. Johnston enters Week 8 as RotoBaller's PPR WR62 in a tough matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams defense hasn't allowed a passing play over 40 yards and has allowed the fourth-fewest passing touchdowns this season. Johnston is a big-play-dependent receiver with Ladd McConkey healthy and Tre' Harris becoming the Chargers' No. 2 receiver this season. Johnston should be out of fantasy lineups in Week 8 and off rosters moving forward.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston is entering his fourth year in the NFL, coming off of his best statistical season in which he recorded 51 catches for 735 yards and eight touchdowns. Johnston was widely regarded as a bust after a shaky rookie season, but the former first-rounder has emerged as a steady contributor in the offense. Johnston led the Chargers in receiving touchdowns in 2025, and finished just 54 yards behind leading receiver Ladd McConkey. His play was inconsistent, with a big statistical spike at the beginning of the season and again in Weeks 16-17. If Keenan Allen, who is currently a free agent, does not return, Johnston could see more consistent usage in 2026.less...
