CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Wide receiver Quentin Johnston gave the Chargers the first score Sunday, beating Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn in for a 29-yard touchdown pass on a throw from Justin Herbert. Johnston adjusted while the pass was in the air enough to keep the ball away from the outstretched arms of Horn.
It was Johnston's third career TD and first on a ball thrown 20 or more yards.
Johnston, the Chargers first-round pick last season, struggled in his first year, finishing with a 6% drop rate, which was the highest of any rookie with at least 50 targets.
