Who Should I Start? Quentin Johnston or Brian Thomas Jr.

Monday, October 6, 6:28 PM

After an explosive start to the 2025 season, Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston regressed in the team's 27-10 loss to the Washington Commanders. He caught all four of his targets for 40 yards but lost a crucial fumble that shifted the momentum of the game in the second quarter. The performance could have been even better, as a holding penalty nullified a 20-yard first-down catch. While Johnston remains heavily involved, issues with the offensive line limited his big-play potential throughout the game. Johnston has the chance to bounce back in Week 6 when the Chargers face a struggling Miami Dolphins defense. That's if Herbert gets enough time to throw deep.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. caught four of six targets for 80 yards in Monday night's 31-28 win over the Chiefs. Thomas led the team in targets, catches, and receiving yards. He hauled in a beautiful deep ball from Trevor Lawrence for a 33-yard gain that set up the game-winning touchdown. That is a great sign to see moving forward and hopefully signals that their chemistry and connection are heading in the right direction. It's been a frustrating start for the second-year star, catching just 16 of 38 targets for 244 yards and one rushing touchdown on the season. He'll look to get on track at home next week against the Seahawks.
