Chargers Exercise Fifth-Year Option on Quentin Johnston

Tuesday, April 28, 6:31 PM

The Los Angeles Chargers announced on Tuesday that they exercised the fifth-year option on wide receiver Quentin Johnston. Johnston was taken by the Bolts with the 21st overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft out of TCU. He was looking like a first-round bust after a very disappointing rookie year that involved plenty of miscues and drops. The 24-year-old then bounced back in 2024 with 55 catches, 711 yards, and eight touchdowns in 15 regular-season games. Johnston had a similar campaign in 2025, finishing with a 51-735-8 line in 14 regular-season starts. The Chargers did add receiver Brenen Thompson in the draft this year, but as long as the team doesn't re-sign veteran Keenan Allen, Johnston should be quarterback Justin Herbert's primary deep threat through the air in 2026. The 6-foot-2, 208-pounder has been a boom/bust WR4/flex as a big-play receiver, but he could have even more upside in new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniels' scheme in his fourth NFL season.

Parker Washington Set to Play "Most Important Role" of His Career in Jaguars Offense

Sunday, May 31, 2:47 PM

According to John Shipley of Sports Illustrated, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington has continued to impress during the team's OTAs and is set to play the "most important role" of his young career during the upcoming season. According to Shipley, Washington has made a strong case to be named the team's OTAs MVP as he continues to find success in this offense. Washington emerged as a legit league-winner in fantasy during the back half of the 2025 season when he became the top option for Trevor Lawrence. Over his last nine games, Washington caught 41 of his 61 targets for 640 yards and four touchdowns. He carried this momentum into the postseason when he brought in seven passes for 101 yards and a touchdown in their Wild Card loss. While he will share targets with Jakobi Meyers and Brian Thomas Jr., it appears the 24-year-old is set to play a lead role in this passing offense, which will put him in a prime position for a breakout campaign.
