ESPN Fantasy Projection: Four weeks into the 2025 season, it appeared Johnston was on the verge of a breakout campaign. The 2023 first-round pick found the end zone four times and scored 14-plus fantasy points in each game during the span. The return to earth was abrupt, as Johnston went on to average 9.2 PPG in his final 10 games. The 25-year-old has posted consistent receiving lines in each of the last two seasons (55-724-8 and 51-735-8), but neither resulted in a top-30 fantasy campaign. The Chargers offense should be better in 2026 with a healthy line and Mike McDaniel calling plays, but Johnston is unlikely to see a big boost in usage with the likes of Ladd McConkey and sophomores Tre Harris and Omarion Hampton also in the fold. Johnston is no more than a boom/bust flex in deeper leagues.
