Quentin Johnston on Herbert Playing Through Injury: "I Forgot He Was Dealing With Something" Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston meets with the media to discuss what he sees from the Eagles on tape, his excitement to play under t...
Limited by shoulder injury Johnston (shoulder) was limited at practice Thursday.
Impact Per Kris Rhim of ESPN.com, Johnston wore a non-contact jersey during Thursday's session, with the Chargers' ensuing injury report revealing that the wideout is managing a shoulder issue. Johnston now has two more chances to upgrade his participation level ahead of Monday night's game against the Eagles. After recording five catches for 42 yards on 10 targets in Week 10, Johnston has been targeted three times in each of his last two outings, though he did manage to put up a 3/23/1 receiving line in this past Sunday's win over the Raiders.

QB Justin Herbert breaks bone in left hand, but he's optimistic about playing for Chargers next week
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert will have surgery Monday to repair a broken bone in his non-throwing hand4 DAYS AGO • Associated Press
Scores TD, otherwise hardly used Johnston caught all three of his targets for 23 yards and a touchdown in the 31-14 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
Impact Johnston's touchdown came late in the first quarter on a nifty designed short target, which required the 2023 first-round pick to nimbly dart around for 10 yards and into the end zone. Week 14 presents an obvious challenge against a gamey Philadelphia defense, but it could become more difficult with the left hand fracture to quarterback Justin Herbert, which will require surgery Sunday. Herbert played through the injury throughout the second half and largely seemed unaffected aside from some cumbersome padding around the injured area, and both the quarterback and head coach Jim Harbaugh think it's possible Herbert could play next week. Still, Johnston has been incredibly volatile in terms of targets in recent weeks and that probably doesn't change with a dinged up Herbert and his uncertain status.

Chargers return from bye trying to get back on track against reeling Raiders, losers of 5 straight

Held catchless in loss Johnston failed to catch any of his three targets in the 35-6 drubbing at the hands of the Jaguars on Sunday.
Impact Justin Herbert was pulled early in the second half after the Chargers were manhandled on both sides of the ball. The entirety of the team's passing attack took a hit, but none more so than Johnston who just garnered 10 targets in the win prior against the Steelers. It's fair to assume the Chargers should get back on track against the lowly Raiders in Week 13, but with difficult matchups upcoming against teams like the Eagles, Chiefs and Texans, this might not be the only game that's rough sledding for Johnston.

Ready to play Sunday Johnston (shin) is active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Impact Though Johnston carried a questionable tag into Sunday, he didn't appear to be at any major risk of missing the contest after he was able to turn in a full practice Friday. After he had been limited to between zero and six targets over four straight appearances from Weeks 5 through 9, Johnston saw his involvement in the passing attack pick back up in the Chargers' win over the Steelers this past Sunday, when he finished with five catches for 42 yards on 10 targets. However, due to the presence of fellow wideouts Ladd McConkey and Keenan Allen as well as the emergence of rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden, Johnston's target counts could remain highly volatile from week to week.

Seems likely to suit up Sunday Johnston (shin), who is questionable for Sunday's Week 11 matchup against Jacksonville, appears likely to play after practicing in full Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Johnston was given a questionable tag heading into the weekend despite logging a full practice Friday. Players who end the week with a full practice session typically end up playing in the upcoming contest, though Johnston's status may not be officially clarified until around 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1:00 PM ET kickoff. If he does suit up, Johnston will likely take on his usual key role in the Chargers' WR corps alongside Ladd McConkey and Keenan Allen.

Questionable after full practice Johnston (shin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars after practicing fully Friday, Eric Smith of the team's official site reports.
Impact Johnston was limited Wednesday and Thursday, but his return to a full session Friday bodes well for his chances of facing Jacksonville. That said, the WR's official 'questionable' designation makes his status worth confirming ahead of the Chargers' 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday. In his team's Week 10 win over the Steelers, Johnston recorded an 82 snap share en route to catching five of his team-high 10 targets for 42 yards.

Questionable for Sunday Johnston (shin) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Impact Johnston was limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday, with added context regarding his Week 11 status slated to arrive via his official participation level Friday. If Johnston is limited or out Sunday against the Jaguars, Tre' Harris would likely see added snaps alongside Ladd McConkey and Keenan Allen.
NOVEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Limited at practice again Johnston (shin) remained limited at practice Thursday.
Impact The same applies to fellow wide receiver Ladd McConkey (ankle), with each player now having one more chance to practice fully ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Ultimately, Friday's final injury report will clarify whether Johnston and/or McConkey head into the weekend with a Week 11 injury designation.

Limited practice Wednesday Johnston (shin) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Impact As was fellow wide receiver Ladd McConkey (ankle), which makes the duo's status worth tracking ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Johnston was on the field for 82 percent of the Chargers' snaps on offense in the team's Week 10 win over the Steelers, en route to logging a team-high 10 targets, and at this stage it's unclear if his shin issue is something that occurred in that contest or popped up during Wednesday's practice.

Leads team with 10 targets on SNF Johnston had five receptions on 10 targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 25-10 win over Pittsburgh.
Impact Johnston paced the Chargers in targets on Sunday Night Football, finishing with his second game recording double-digit targets this season. The large volume didn't result in a notable fantasy score this time around, as it was Ladd McConkey (4-107-1) who cashed in Justin Herbert's lone touchdown pass of the evening. Johnston is still on pace for a career year with a 37-502-6 receiving line through nine appearances. The 23-year-old will look to enter Los Angeles' Week 12 bye on a high note with a strong showing against the Jaguars next Sunday.

Gets back on track Johnston recorded four receptions on five targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Titans.
Impact Johnston bounced back from a zero-target performance in Week 8, thanks primarily to 23 and 19-yard receptions -- the latter of which went for a touchdown. Most importantly, he seemed to regain his role in the Chargers' offense, matching Keenan Allen and Oronde Gadsden in targets. Overall, Johnston logged his highest yardage total since Week 4 and is likely to remain a volatile fantasy performer, though he has a touchdown in five of eight games this season

Blanked in Thursday's win Johnston wasn't targeted in Thursday's 37-10 win over the Vikings.
Impact Johnston was on the field for 38 of 73 offensive snaps, trailing Tre' Harris (43) and Ladd McConkey (42) but finishing well ahead of Keenan Allen (18). Harris has an overlapping skill set with Johnston, and the rookie second-round pick could gradually supplant Johnston as the team's go-to deep threat. Johnston exceeded 70 receiving yards in each of his first four appearances this season while scoring four touchdowns over that span, but he has just 70 yards and one touchdown in his last three games combined.
