Quentin Johnston was among college football’s best receivers in 2022, and the Chargers wasted no time in entering their draft card to select him with the No. 21 overall selection on Thursday night.
A big-bodied wideout from TCU, Johnston should provide a spark to Los Angeles’ offense early in the 2023 season as he is a deep threat with the speed to stretch the field and the ability to outpace defenders in the open field with great explosiveness, wiggle and strength.
His exceptional highlight reel made him a fan favorite in Ft. Worth and should translate well to the NFL game. Check out some of his top plays below, and get acquainted with the Bolts’ newest receiving threat:

TCU sophomore wide receiver Quentin Johnston is someone you should keep your eyes on. 5 receptions, 95 yards and 2 touchdowns through 3 quarters and a half. A versatile X receiver who can win consistently at the LOS.pic.twitter.com/wH0liXVT9Z

⚫️ 2022 Ravens: 4.6 yards after the catch per reception (28th in the NFL)
🟣 2022 Quentin Johnston: 8.9 YAC per reception (1st in class)If the Ravens want a 1st-round WR, Johnston offers a ton of upside — more than Jordan Addison or Zay Flowers can. https://t.co/OtnpKSGopw pic.twitter.com/vDukc5Llx4
