Quentin Johnston Even Harder to Trust With Questionable Tag in Week 15
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (groin) did not practice on Friday and is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. It's never a good sign when a player appears on the injury report late in the week, suggesting an injury occurred during practice. Johnston has struggled to produce in the Chargers' injury-riddled, quick-passing offense, catching two passes for eight yards on three targets last week. If he is cleared to play, he faces a tough Kansas City Chiefs defense that has allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards this season. Although the potential injury to Chiefs defensive back Trent McDuffie (knee) offers a slight hope, Johnston's role as a downfield threat is being limited by the team's injured offensive line and quarterback Justin Herbert's tendency for short throws. The game is once again expected to be run-heavy. RotoBaller ranks Johnston as WR44 this week. Considering the tough matchup, the limited passing game, and his low floor, Johnston remains a touchdown-dependent WR4 who should only be started in deeper leagues.
